I guess Tucker Bounds was finishing off an early foursome last Friday, so the McCain campaign put Nicole Wallace on Morning Joe to shamelessly lie about John McCain’s tax plan for coporations:
On MSNBC Wednesday morning, senior McCain advisor Nicolle Wallace said that John McCain won’t cut taxes for corporations, and that in fact he is “their worst nightmare.”

The quote is at about 5:10 in the above video, but if you rewind a bit, you’ll see host Joe Scarborough grilling Obama strategist Robert Gibbs on why Obama’s not proposing corporate tax cuts. Scarborough points out that other countries are reducing taxes on corporations and says that equivalent tax cuts are necessary to keep the U.S. competitive; Obama’s tax increases, he says, could undermine American businesses. So Wallace’s tack – saying that McCain isn’t for cutting corporate taxes either – is a bit mystifying. But is it true?
Not remotely.
