If there is one single powerful argument against McCain's statement you have to look no further than George Bush.
He is so high, he got stuck in the trees!!
He has to lie to win and he knows it.

dow below 9K now..
A single payer system that allowed everyone to buy into at reduced rates due to the economies of scale would force the private insurers to straighten up their business practices, knowing they would have to compete with a payer that would be allowing 300 million people to buy coverage.
They would either be extremely competitive for the average consumer, or they could spend their time catering to rich people who would be wiling to spend extra dollars for minimal return.
Fuck, just open up Medicare for everyone.
Ideally, I would like the free, cradle to grave coverage McCain has been experiencing.
McCain doesn't have to ever worry about his health care, his $100 million dollar Sugar Momma, and the US Senate have everything covered for him.
However, in the last debate he very clearly did say anyone who wanted to keep their insurance policy could, and the rest of us could sign on to the same plan as Congress has WITHIN MCCAIN'S HEARING (providing McCain hadn't turned his hearing aids off.)
Other than single payer as the ideal, I hear that government health insurance plan members of Congress get is pretty freaking excellent, and I'd be happy to settle for that.
Big fucking difference from the lack of any I have now, or the $1,000 a month individual plan I was last offered.
Didn't Republicans tell us that Dow would hit 30K back during the dot-com bubble?
Didn't Republicans tell us we should put our Social Security safety net in Wall Street?
Everyone knows by now what a lie that is.
The Catholic Vote
Obama 51 %
McCain 40 %
Just now on MSNBC
My parents are both alive today because of excellent public NHS healthcare, and yet my mother opted to go private for shoulder surgery because there waiting list for this non-critical surgery was a couple of months long. It was her choice, and although they are not wealthy people (retired teachers) they were able to afford the bill because they had not been bankrupted by previous major surgeries.
So, please, do everything you can to explode the myth that a publica healthcare system would be the end of choice and the end of private healthcare. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Obama maintains significant lead
October 9, 2008
Keep up all your lies and negativity McPalin....cuz it's working in Obama's favor.
JFC... This guy is really losing it !!
That's right crybaby, cry cry cry... not even Palin will give you the time of day once your death is no longer helpful to her.
don't worry, I don't think they'll persuade anybody this way. Most people are wise to the lie, lie, lie tactic now.
"Obama has run the dirtiest campaign in History" coming from Cindy McCain.
"Who is the Real Obama?" like he hasn't been examined and scrutinized since the Democratic primaries and no one has given a shit about McCain's history, associations, health records, etc.
"Gotta be able to Trust the candidates" from the man who has his staff issuing correction after correction while fact-checkers all over the country are going nuts
Unfortunately, they think about this first and get it out in public, then it sounds plain stupid if the Dems come back and say, "No, YOU are!"
On the health care smear -- get an ad up real quick that uses McCain's lies to Obama's favor. This is an opportunity to explain Obama's health care plan to people. Probably would take some longer ads... with Obama talking straight at the camera, preferably.
Health care would naturally continued to be provided by licensed doctors and nurses and other duly qualified medical service providers.
Cindy McCain claims Obama is waging dirty campaign
From Associated Press

WASHINGTON - Cindy McCain has accused Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama of running "the dirtiest campaign in American history."
We must make our own conclusion regarding McCain's fitness for office or for retirement NOW. Are these LIES or CONFUSIONS???????
