  At this Associated Press story states, about the only thing John McCain and Barack Obama agree on regarding taxes is that they don't agree on anything else.

  Obama is considering raising taxes on those making more than $250,000 annually; McCain is focusing on cutting business taxes to spur the economy.

  Quote: "On tax policy, health care reform, trade, government spending, and a long list of other issues, we offer very different choices to the American people," McCain says at every turn.

Concurs Obama: "When it comes to the economy, John McCain and I have a fundamentally different vision of where to take the country."

  To get a good idea of the differences between the two on taxes, check out the story here.
