WASHINGTON - In GOP activist circles it is known simply as the pledge, and during the past 25 years it has become the essential conservative credential for a whole generation of Republicans seeking elective office in a party defined by its implacable opposition to raising taxes.

.

Of the 242 Republicans serving in the House of Representatives, all but six have signed the antitax pledge that has emerged as a key enforcement mechanism of the Republican orthodoxy on taxes.

.

But now, an increasing number of Republicans running for Congress are declining to sign the pledge. It is a small sign that could signal a big shift in the GOPs politics on taxes.

.

Of the 25 candidates this year promoted by the National Republican Congressional Committee as young guns and contenders - the top rungs of a program highlighting promising candidates challenging Democrats or running in open seats - at least a third have said they do not plan to sign the pledge.

.

Two of the seven candidates promoted by the NRCC as the Young Gun Vanguard - those competing in open seats that are considered Republican-leaning - have also declined to sign.

.

Authored by antitax crusader Grover Norquist, the pledge compels candidates to resist any effort to raise tax rates for individuals and businesses. They also pledge to oppose the elimination of tax credits and deductions unless they are matched dollar-for-dollar with other tax cuts.
