Audience member: "Why is it that someone like my father who goes to school for 13 years gets penalized in a huge tax bracket because he's a doctor."

McCain: "I think it's to some degree because we feel obviously that wealthy people can afford more."

Audience member: "Are we getting closer and closer to, like, socialism?"

McCain: "Here's what I really believe: That when you reach a certain level of comfort, there's nothing wrong with paying somewhat more."

Once again, the Daily Show does what real journalists can't or won't. McCain believes that we should spread the wealth around because the rich can afford it. He's spent the last week attacking Obama for a position on taxes that McCain himself has defended and supported.

What a shock.
