Well, I’m in two minds about this. What McCain proposes is actually what is needed. Tort reform, loosening of state regulation of health care that limits access to insurance, and (maybe) tax credits for having health insurance.
I’m less sure about that last one. Better to just cut taxes, and let people decide what they want to spend it on.
Where he goes wrong, of course, is offering, once again, to “reach across the aisle” and work with obama, pelosi, and reid, on such a project.
No, Juan. Health care is a dead issue as long as this Communist is in the White House and those two jihadists are running congress. Obamacare must have a stake driven through its heart. Why in hell do you want to take a good idea like tort reform and mix it up with his thousand page Communist mess?
Go back to your room and shut up.
Besides, wasn't it the Rats who promised transparency but then locked the Republicans out of closed door meeting wrt health care reform?
So once again, the GOP will be asked to "save the day" and get not one ounce of credit for it.
Have we not learned our lesson yet?

You know damn good and well that, if McCain gets his way, the GOP will attain far less than what it's asking or what is needed.
At the same time, the Democrats will get a large portion of what they want. Which negates the value of the deal altogether.
McCain would trade the availability of health insurance across state lines for a public option -- which would make the former irrelevant.
Hey, Mitch! Get this man out of the mix.
I agree with that. Tax credits are really just socialism-lite.
