"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 need tax relief"

Perhaps he does not consider this point to be valid any more- If he believes the tax cut WILL benefit the middle-class, a reasonable person would think that he HAD to support the tax cut ( given his previous statement)

Your opinion is as valid as mine. No more so, nor any less.<<

I have to disagree. My opinion is based on a logical look at the facts. Yours seems to be based on mind reading of McCain. If he were to actually repudiate his previous statements and EXPRESS the thoughts you hypothetically credit him with, you may have a point. But since he HAS NOT repudiated these statements, the preponderance of the evidence points to pandering.
