His campaign tried to fend off the damaging charges by arguing that sure, the governor had engaged in tax, but it was consensual tax, not predatory tax. However, as tonight's statewide poll shows, taxpayers appeared unmoved by that brilliant defense. In surveys leading up to Election Day, an overwhelming majority consistently said Gov. Davis had grabbed their wallets without their consent. Why, just last week, the governor was at it again, groping and grabbing a record $4 billion in higher car taxes. Leave it to Davis' gifted masterminds to frame the closing campaign days around the theme of groping and grabbing. (Top Democrats insisted that groping and grabbing under Clinton greatly stimulated the economy).And ole clintoon really helped out Davis didn't he ? clintoon torpedoed another LIBERAL candidate !!
