I get the sence that regardless of the actual economics, most voters think the tax bursen is about right at the moment and are more conserned about deficits than revenues and who pays them.

Calling them strange is putting it lightly. These guys are holding candidates for the POTUS hostage unless they agree to shower the state with billions of dollars in farmer subsidies. The ~$160 billion dollars Bush promised in 2000 and delivered in 2002 wasn't enough. Now they've upped the ante to $280 billion. Woe unto the candidate who doesn't oblige. Oh, and they're not going to pay a dime in income tax! http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/politics/5246307.html Democracy in action.
