Can a 'Family First' Agenda Save McCain?

Obama plan provides much better relieve for 95% of Americans. McCain's tax plan adds more to the deficit.
Many economist think both McCain and Obama should not add more to the deficit that Bush created.
McCain wants to cut Social Security and Medicare benefits.
In addition, neither candidate has provided a detailed enough plan to determine for sure what would happen.
McCain's statements about balancing the budget are a joke. Look at where he plans to get the money. It is really very amusing. He is counting on a victory (undefined) in Iraq and Afghanistan and cutting earmarks.
How can do know the earmarks won't be moved to voted on budget items?
How do we know that another war will not be waged?
It is going to take a very long time to recover from the Bush administration and the Phil Gramm disaster to our economy.
Do a search on Gramm and Enron and subprime.

McCain's "other" proposal to dangle a $5000 tax credit while cutting families out of group health plan---so there is NO financial protection for pre-existing conditions----is the most anti-family thing ever yet proposed by Republicans. Have I mentioned too that the McCains are anti-family BEER DEALERS too? (You naysayers care to explain how beer is PRO-family? Nah, of course not.
