John McCain in 2001

“I cannot in good conscience support a tax cut in which so many of the benefits go to the most fortunate among us, at the expense of middle class Americans who most need tax relief.”

— John McCain‘s May 26, 2001 statement on the Senate floor.

The St. Petersburg Times/Congressional Quarterly’s Politifact.com site gives the position modification a “full flop.” I wonder if he regrets selling out. I think he must by this time.
