McCain and Social Security

He has no plan, anymore, that he's willing to publicly admit to. In the past, he called his plan "privatization," and it was the same plan as the incredibly unpopular Bush proposal which would dramatically reduce benefits and divert payroll taxes into private accounts.

So it's safe to assume he still thinks the same thing, and just like Bush, he's refusing to upfront with people about his proposals until after the election. It's then that we could expect the bamboozle to continue right where it left off in early 2005.

But right now, here's the entirety of their plan:

Aides said McCain would not support a tax increase to address the solvency of the program, but they did not give further details.

So they won't tell you about their massive benefit cuts. And they won't keep repeating the word privatization, despite using it before to describe the same proposal and knowing that's exactly what it is. But they'll hope they don't get called out on refusing to level with us about what he really believes.

Why should he give a view anyway? He`ll just change it tomorrow. This man has a flop for every flip and then back again. He`s truly becoming the presidential candidate that no one will know what he stands for! His next slogan will be like pick one for I`m a man for all seasons unless you prefer another season. Then I`m your man! I can`t figure how anyone could vote for this buffoon? He even has people who admire him confused. They are starting to say that perhaps he`ll go back to the old McCain once he gets in office. Ya right! He can`t even be straight with himself!
