The McCain Update - January 18, 2008

Tomorrow is the South Carolina primary and our events across the state have been filled with great crowds, energy and excitement. John McCain remains the best candidate in this race, a candidate who is ready to give voters straight talk and real solutions. He is ready to stand up for truth and honesty. Since 1980, the candidate who has won South Carolina has gone on to win the Republican nomination and we intend for John McCain to continue that trend.

A Plan for Our Economy

John McCain unveiled his plan to
stimulate the American economy in South Carolina this week. McCain's plan will lower the corporate tax rate, allow expensing of equipment and technology investments and establish a permanent research and development tax credit.

John McCain's economic package is a genuinely conservative, pro-growth plan to provide much-needed stimulus to our economy, creating more prosperity and opportunity for American families. Unlike the Democrats' tired ideas of tax and spend, John McCain's plan will cut taxes, spur investment and innovation, and make American business more competitive in the global marketplace.
