After a pair of Sen. Barack Obama’s advisers published an op-ed in The Wall Street Journaltoday clarifying the presumed Democratic nominee’s tax policy, the McCain campaign responded with its first conference call with reporters this week. During the call, several of Sen. John McCain’s surrogates — including advisers Carly Fiorina and Doug Holtz-Eakin, as well as Stanford University economics professor John Taylor — blasted Obama for shifting his position on payroll taxes. The Obama campaign today signaled a willingness to wait a decade before lifting the current $250,000 ceiling on the Social Security payroll tax.Here’s what Fiorina said:
“„“Barack Obama has also been quoted as saying he would perhaps delay his payroll tax increase if he thought it would harm people in the current economy.
