One thing he needs to do that Sarah didn't quite step up to in her debate against Biden: When Obama touts his "tax plan" that will reduce taxes for 95% of the American people (which is not true according even to the Obama-leaning FactCheck.org), McCain needs to refute that with something along these lines:
"Regardless of some 'tax plan' that you have, you are on record by your votes to allow the Bush tax cuts to expire, which will in fact be a tremendous tax increase on ALL American taxpayers. And as for your tax proposals, I have enough experience dealing with democrat presidential candidates to remember one in 1992 who campaigned on proposed tax cuts for the middle class but then turned around and championed the largest tax increase in history within his first months in office. Your voting record gives better insight into your plans for the American taxpayer than your 'proposals' do, no matter how many times you try to convince the American people that you won't raise their taxes."

In these turbulent economic times the tax increase that you would levy would have the same result as the Smoot Hawley act did in 1930. Exacerbated unemployment and out of control inflation is something that is reckless and radical and something that America can just not afford.
