Tone-deaf R TV ads have only one theme: they/it will raise taxes

Whether it’s a candidate or a proposition, all the Rs have to run on is the fear that their taxes will go up if the D is elected/prop is passed. This in a state where the electorate overwhelmingly voted to raise their own taxes to support education, a state where Ds hold a commanding majority. This at a time when higher taxes aren’t even an issue.

It’s a message that is twenty years behind the times, but it’s all they’ve got.

It doesn't matter what the tax pays for..........if you need to raise it, forget it!

If they really want to avoid paying taxes..........they should move to a country where there aren't any: Somalia!
