Dunno. Maybe. Do you have the whole cite or transcript? Was it an article, a speech, and interview, or what?

I get veeeeeeery cautious when reading quotes on the interwebs. If I'm to believe stuff I've read from Giuliani then McCain has "voted to increase taxes" a jillion times. If I'm to believe McCain supporters, he's never ever voted for a one. It's a crap accusation regardless because without the context of the vote you can't really know what a legislator was doing or trying to do.

That's one of the reasons I don't like Senators as candidates - too easy to make them look stupid, foolish, duplicitous, or all three.

Anyway, I need context before I get excited either way about someone.
