John McCain and the Economy
For a genuinely interesting read today, take a gander at Stephen Moore's column in the WSJ today about his interview with GOP presidential-hopeful John McCain. It's an interesting look at what the Senator will propose if he runs for president in an area that he normally does not have much to do with: economic policy.

The pluses:
He listens to Phil Gramm.
He believes in fiscal restraint.

The minuses:
He's soft on tax cuts.
He's willing to engage in class-warfare pandering.

If you're thinking about whether you could support the Senator for president, you have to read this. Moore paints Sen. McCain as a Theodore Roosevelt-type populist reformer. Base10 thinks he's right. It's not all good. But it's not all bad either.
