McCain doesn't address the americans who have pre- conditions in health care
I wish Obama would hammer him on this. I don't know why this isn't as big an issue as the economy, war, or terrorism. People who want to get coverage and can pay for it are denied. How many of the 50 million are denied coverage not because they can't pay for it but because they a a pre existing condition which excludes them. These millions and millions are one illness away from tradgedy that can come at any moment.

I guess I do know why...the MSM wont cover this due to their sponsers.

1. The fact is, if McCain had to buy health insurance on his own,
it wouldn't be offered to him at any price. Not that it matters to him, of course. Sell a mansion and go to the doctor.

This is so right and this applies to every user of our current non-Healthcare system. Recommended.

Another example of being out of touch.

5. this is the real "death tax" not the tax on inheritances
How many people lose everything they have to pay for health care - they end up with nothing to pass on to their children.
