Mr. Kaine’s New Campaign
Thursday’s WaPo editorial: “Having dodged the question of new taxes for transportation as a candidate, Mr. Kaine takes office lacking a revenue-raising mandate. Accordingly, he faces an uphill battle, as well as a relatively poor political climate. His initiative comes just two years after Gov. Mark R. Warner (D) fought a bitter fight for a $1.5 billion tax overhaul and increase for public education. Pulling off a second major tax increase in three years will be a colossal challenge.”
Lack of Revenue? Major Tax Increase? Colossal Challenge?
Hmm…
