Honestly, I don't think either candidate will end up cutting taxes...its a bunch of hooey. You're not going to solve the deficit problem by cutting out earmark programs and neither party has shown interest in making major cutbacks to government entitlement programs (and really, at times like this, what entitlement programs are you going to cut?) Both candidates support cutbacks in military spending, but how realistic is that while we're still funding a war?

I'd almost have more respect for one of them if they said, "Guess what, we're totally f**ked right now and there's not much I can do about it." At least it would be honest.
