    Here's the link: http://www.electiontaxes.com/

    After looking at some of the comments, it looks like nearly everyone would be better off under Obama--to the point that it makes you wonder about the validity of the website. They don't show you anything about the method they use, and they have a lot of assumptions built into the calculator. I'd be curious to get some thoughts from people that know their tax plans more than I do...

    Nearly zero difference for me. But what they say they will do and what actually happens is hard to say.

    They both suck- i don't know who to vote for.

    Mine are nearly the same but slightly less under McCain. I was talking to my wife just yesterday and I said that this is the first election that I have gone into not wanting to vote FOR somebody....looks like I will have to vote against somebody. :(

    By the way I thought that Obama was saying that your taxes will only go up under his plan if you make over 250K per year...I am married filing joint and making about 70 grand a year less than that number...I figure that his figures are off a bit.

    Is this accurate? It shows my difference as about $6500 (more with Obama)... not as bad as I had feared.
