What was that, Senator McCain?

Kind of a quick diary, cross-posted at Blue Mass Group.

From John McCain:

Have you seen the headlines about how much money the Democrats are raising? In just six months, the Democrats running for president against me have raised more than a jaw-dropping $100 million combined! These well-funded Democrats are so far out of the mainstream that electing any one of them as President would lead to a less secure homeland, surrender in Iraq, socialized health care, new taxes, and even more wasteful spending. For every issue facing our nation, their solution is more government.

I'm still the Republican presidential candidate who is in the best position to stop the Democrats from taking the White House in 2008. And with the stakes so high, we cannot afford to give up...or even back down one inch. I'm the only candidate in this race prepared to be Commander-in-Chief from day one and dedicated to continuing the fight against Islamic fundamentalists. I will veto every bill that wastes taxpayers' dollars, and I will stand up to the special interests and Washington lobbyists to find real reform to fix our nation's most pressing problems, like health care. With so much on the line, we cannot afford to elect a Democrat to the White House in 2008.

Our nation's most pressing problems, like health care. Now here's what McCain's website says about health care:

That's right, nothin' ... but he'll solve it, if you help, now.

Wish I could claim credit, but I think I saw it (0.00 / 0)
somewhere else and lifted the idea (it's a good one).

This is a fantastic catch, btw. Rec'd.

You might want to try crossposting on dKos for some more eyeballs.

Wonder if Sununu's fired now.


Thanks (0.00 / 0)
I don't want to sign up at dKos (say goodbye to ALL my productivity if I did), but you're welcome to use the information.

And why is it blank? (0.00 / 0)
Because he pushed for a mandatory, subsidized, private insurance program in Massachusetts, and it is showing mixed results, and he is flip-flopping yet again.

You probably know much more about it than me, Jim.


That voting argument wore you out (4.00 / 1)
I think you mean Romney, not McCain.

But to your point, yes, the plan has flaws. One of the most notable features of last year's governor's race was how none of them talked about funding it, not even the lesser known candidates.
