I’m no fan of McCain, but it looks like he’s suggesting Obama-style bipartisanship here. In other words, agree with our point of view or go pound sand. As you point out, these are all conservative ideas. There’s no way any Democrat would actually do that, but it’s fun to try.

Exactly. Hey, we can talk about these points, and make the Democrats say WHY they are opposed to them.

However, this is just another of the daily rabscuttle “hate McCain/hate Conservatives” threads. He just likes to only attack those in the GOP, never the Democrats. And McCain is his favorite whipping boy.

I’m not a big fan of McCain, but the man’s 100% correct on these points, and that the GOP should push this type of sensible, conservative health care reform.

But there is a real danger in cases like this that McCain and/or Graham will get a few concessions and decide to vote for the wonderful, new "bipartisan" bill.

Republicans need to get away from Obamacare and let it die, or let the Dims own it 100%.

Agreed, it might help if more people would actually read what is being suggested before reacting.
