CNN-Poor reporting
CNN just had a special with John Roberts and Campbell Brown trying to present where the candidates stood on the issues.

However, they failed to report on two problems on McCain.

They described McCain's health plan.
However, they failed to point out that under McCain, insurance costs for most Americans would rise.
Most Americans pay more than $2500 or $5000 in insurance costs (except in cases of employer-provided health care)

McCain will cut the budget deficit by targeting ear-marks.
However, McCain has talked of "more wars".
He has not paid for the last war, where is going to get the money for "more wars"?
