Both Senator McCain and Senator Clinton have demanded that we suspend the gas tax, which would not lower gas prices this summer ~ experts say it's likely to increase the amount that oil companies charge for gas.
Economists on both the Democratic and Republican sides have called the McCain-Clinton proposal a "gimmick" and "pointless." Clinton aides even bragged to the Washington Post that the plan is just a political ploy to help their candidate sound like she's against Big Oil.
This is political pandering at its worse.
