I wish Sarah Palin would throw McCain under the bus. She would cement her place at the head of the Republican party, instantly.

The Hoarse-Whisperer looking undecided and confused which is usual for this despicable RINO. Seated next to Juan is his good friend and fellow traitor, Mel.

Well, I thought the president is eloquent. I thought he had a lot of passion.

For the love of god McCain SHUT UP ALREADY!

Makes it even more remarkable that he chose Sarah Palin as his running mate. Must have had a brain cramp that day.

Thank God that he did.

I keep fighting the idea of a third party, and then Mccain keeps opening up his mouth and gives me a hundred reasons why the GOP is no longer viable :(

I just got an e-mail from johnmccain.com asking me to sign some stupid petition asking the President to work with Republicans and come up with a compromise plan.

I immediately sent them a message to “unsubscribe” me from any future messages.

He has nothing to say to me that I care to hear.

I voted for this man by default (I really voted for Palin, NOT McCain). He needs to go away and spend time with his ditzy daughter (now we know where she got her ideals from).

Agreed. I pretty much voted for Palin and against Obama.

You pulled quotes way out of context.

Let's look at a fuller quote:

---------------------------------------------

L. KING: What -- what is wrong -- Senator, what is wrong with, we have the Postal Service and FedEx.

What's wrong with a public option on health?

What's wrong with giving the Americans -- OK, if you can't afford this, we'll give you that?

MCCAIN: Well, the -- the Postal Service is -- is going broke. It has about a $7 billion deficit no matter what FedEx does.

Another point here is, is will the government option have an unfair advantage?

If it doesn't, then it's just one of 1,500 or more health insurance policies available -- health insurance plans available to Americans. If it has an unfair advantage, then, obviously, Americans are going to gravitate in that direction and private health insurance will be more expensive. So there -- there has to be some advantage here for people to leave their health insurance policy and that would be a government health option, in my view. And people would gravitate out of it -- out of public...

L. KING: Is there any...

MCCAIN: ...out of the private health insurance. L. KING: Is there any is there any good reason, Senator, in a government and in a nation this rich, why anyone -- anyone should go without health needs?

MCCAIN: There is no reason why there should not be affordable and available health insurance and health care for all Americans.

The question is, are you going to have the, "public mandate?"

Are you going to have costs which escalate to over $1 trillion and no way to pay for it?

Despite what the president said tonight, there's still no -- in the estimate of the Congressional Budget Office, a way to pay for this $1 trillion added burden onto the already $9 trillion in deficits we're going to have over the next 10 years anyway. It's -- we cannot sustain this kind of deficit. It has to be paid for. The president pledged to. So far, his numbers don't add up.

---------------------------------------------

McCain is far from on board with Obamacare.
