McCain's celebrity solution for healthcare

By Libby

If it wasn't such a serious problem, this would be more hilarious. McCain's plan for the crisis in rural health care. Send in celebrity athletes to inspire kids to lose weight and adopt a healthy lifestyle.

Now, there's nothing wrong with having Shaq inspire kids to be healthy, but what rural residents need right now is more health care providers. That doesn't seem to be mentioned in McCain's overall strategy. Indeed, it doesn't seem that McCain has much of a strategy at all outside of letting Shaq handle it.
