And my favorite commentary about Mr. McCain so far this year came from Joe Scarborough, the former Repub. Congressman from Fla. turned cable news pundit. His description of McCain's platform:

"Less jobs, more wars"

Good luck with that!!!

Meanwhile, back on "sensible" healthcare .... "But on health care he actually does have a plan out there on his website (or so I hear, I havent actually read it, just accounts of it)."

So, without even knowing what it actually contains, you can tell it will be sensible and produce better outcomes?
"2. To get a sensible health insurance system in this country. EVERY other industrialized country pays way less than we do and has better outcomes. Most or all of the scare mongering from opponents has been debunked (e.g. see above on wait times)"

Do you arrive at these conclusions by divine revelation, or do you simply take them on faith?

" You can spank me for that.
I think you have me confused with one of yours..."

In answering this am trying to decide whether to start with Ted Haggard or Larry Craig. Or maybe that Republican congressman who was messing around with the pages? I just cant decide. So many choices on your side.

On our side we are so debauched that anything goes. No scandals because all the Dems are already out of the closet.

It will be an advantage in the Pres. election. Mr. Obama already confessed all of his sins in his book. So much better to be up front dont you think?

Nice links, but what do they have to do with the SPECFICS of Obama's plan. THAT was the question.
