I mean, really? What's going on here? This is a popular line you hear conservatives spouting, but then Cain comes out with a new tax plan. Then Perry does a new tax plan.
It seems to me that this is an easy line for Ron Paul since he's the only one who has addressed the spending.
Congressman Paul, which tax plan do you like better? Perry's or Cain's?
"If we had a revenue problem, we could talk about different tax plans, but we have a spending problem! I want to shrink taxes for everybody, not come up with new schemes. But we need to dramatically fix the spending problem - trying to find new ways for the government to get revenue is avoiding the real issue!"
or... (even though he wouldn't do this)
"Mr. Cain talks about making sure you're working on the right problem, but he wants to mess with the revenue system. We all know the problem isn't revenue, it's spending!"
