“It seems to me that this is the opposite of the McCain-big-government solution. When someone does you harm you take them to court. If you prove your case you get compensated and the one who did the harm gets the publicity. The free market solution.”

Haven’t you ever noticed that publicity creating lawsuits against Business A often happen just as Business B pushes to regulate it’s competitors? I don’t think they are two separate things; rather, they are part of a single effort.

Maybe it’s a coincidence.

I don't know. It would take a lot of wrangling to time a lawsuit with the promotion of a bill although McCain could have been sitting on it biding his time. I would certainly agree that the leftist media will milk this lawsuit and any other news that works towards their ends for all it's worth.

I just think it's a matter of not allowing them to spin things their way. The lawsuit is not a sign of a need for regulation it is a sign of the system regulating itself IMO.
