The Washington Post and New York Observor are both calling today for the release of Cindy McCain's tax records.
From the Post:
Mrs. McCain's Refusal
The wife of an ethics-and-transparency crusader seeking the presidency shouldn't shield her tax filings.Wednesday, May 14, 2008; A18
"IT WON'T DO." That was our bottom line in 1984 when Rep. Geraldine Ferraro of New York, Democratic vice presidential candidate, balked at releasing her husband's income tax returns. Ms. Ferraro ultimately relented. It was our bottom line four years ago, when Teresa Heinz Kerry, wife of the Democratic nominee, refused to release her returns; Ms. Kerry relented as well. And it is just as apt now with regard to Cindy McCain's tax returns.
From the Observer:
Show Us Your 1040, Mrs. McCain!
by Joe Conason | May 13, 2008
In contrast to their unrelenting demands for absolutely complete disclosure by Bill and Hillary Clinton over alleged or suspected conflicts of interest, the so-called conservative media have remained mum about Mrs. McCain.
That silence similarly contrasts with the hell raised four years ago over Teresa Heinz Kerry’s reluctance to reveal her tax returns alongside those of her spouse, the Democratic presidential nominee and senator, John Kerry.
I can't see a way for Senator McCain to hold onto his excuse that privacy rather than transparency should be the rule for the McCain family and no others.
