 Paul J. Gessing on FairTax, Tax Reform, Inez Tenenbaum, and Jim DeMint on NRO Financial
Inez Tenenbaum, the Democratic party’s choice for the open Senate seat for South Carolina, has chosen to make tax reform, specifically her opposition to it, the centerpiece issue of her candidacy.

In the parlance of today’s youth, Tenenbaum is just being a “hater.” She is more than willing to put someone else’s ideas down, and in the process she is hoping to focus attention away from her own past votes to increase taxes and her lack of a viable alternative.
