McCain's Gas Plan Stinks

John McCain is probably the only person who thinks this is a good idea. Why does he keep touting it?

From McCain resurrects call for gas tax holiday:

With gas prices reaching a national average of four dollars a gallon — a record high — John McCain is planning to resurrect his call for a national gas tax holiday, which became a staple of his stump speech in late April and early May.

"I don't pretend that it's an answer to our energy problems," he said.

Instead, McCain argued, low-income families could save some extra cash to pay for their children’s school supplies this fall, or perhaps treat themselves to a nice dinner.

After that dinner, then what?
