The Tax Issue

16 Apr 2008 10:29 am

Looking at Gallup data, Dave Weigel makes this observation:

The salience of the tax issue at the federal level is slumping. Americans are still irritated by taxes at the state level, but less so: You can finesse their frustration by making payment simpler and persuading them that their services are worth the cost. If this doesn't grant a mandate for Democrats to seize power and rates rates, it doesn't promise much political benefit for anti-tax Republicans, either. Not in the short term.
