There is a strange thing happening on the WV campaign trail these days, it is quite absent of the “gas tax holiday” that Sen. Clinton was driving down everyone’s throat last week.
Why is that?
West Virginia is full of hard-working, white, middle-class Americans that are currently paying $3.83 a gallon, which is the WV average. So why is WV any different than Indiana and North Carolina was just a week ago? I can only think of two reasons why there is no talk of the gas tax holiday by Sen. Clinton….
1) She was finally schooled on how bad the idea was to begin with.
or
2) She was pandering to try and attract votes.
I lean more towards number 2, although number 1 is pretty accurate in the fact that it was truly a bad idea. Once again Sen. Clinton has shown us that she will do and say whatever it takes, in front of who ever she is speaking to, in order to attract support.
Sen. Clinton, we in the political world call that pandering.
