I think Cain’s and Bachmann’s plans should be combined. I challenge anyone to step away from the American Idle crap and find anything wrong with her plans.

Cain has at least breached the line by offering a plan with specifics for systemic change to taxation, and Bachman surely knows bottom lines herself. Palin and others want policy revelations now, but as soon as anything meaningful is laid out, like specifics, you open yourself up to mortal combat on each jot and tittle and it is no longer about you or Obama, but line 1007 on page 92. This is before you have even fully introduced yourself to the country. Primaries are dog fights and Palin and other critics have no experience in a presidential primary and can hardly expect an entirely general election campaign platform to be the nucleus of a primary campaign with nine different candidates. It seems to me that not until the general election can we expect to see detailed a policy plan for every issue, particularly on taxation. Look for Republicans to join together, fix imperfections, and try to move this boulder uphill in congress. True enough, that it will likely be years before we get anywhere if the past is an indication.
