In an interview with the Wall Street Journal where John McCain mostly defends fairly conservative economic policies, do we see a little backsliding on the no-tax-hike pledge?
"I'm not making a 'read my lips' statement, in that I will not raise taxes," McCain says. "But I'm not saying I can envision a scenario where I would, OK?" Oh, OK. If he starts talking about a "flexible freeze" in federal spending, we know we're in trouble.
