Arizona Senator and Republican Presidential Candidate John McCain
listen:
  It was only several months ago when some counted John McCain virtually out of the race. His poll numbers were falling, and some had said his money had all but run out. But McCain will be the first to tell you: never count him out. Now only weeks before the Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary McCain has picked up momentum, with higher poll numbers and a major endorsement by the Union Leader. Today Senator McCain joins us for the second time to talk about his run for president, as well has where he stands on Iraq, Iran, healthcare and immigration. Guest

How does Senator McCain explain his extremely strong support of President Bush's initiatives? He has "rubber-stamped" more Bush initiatives than almost any other Republican Senator -- perhaps the most, ie., greater than 90 percent. Does he believe this record is consistent with "reasonableness?"
I'm interested in hearing what Senator McCain thinks about the crisis in higher education costs. It it pretty clear to most people in America today that colleges and universities are gouging the American student and their families. What does Senator McCain think can be done to rein in these outrageous yearly school rates that are bankrupting our nation's future?
Thanks!
Dear Laura: I would like to have heard you ask Senator McCain to tell us how France and Japan handle the problem of atomic waste. You let him off pretty easily on that...or are you one of those who thinks they have it solved? Take a look. It's a dangerous assumption, I think. The nuclear power industry has an interest in keeping this foggy. DR
I heard the show tuesday with sen J McCain.
The question was asked; "how much does the Iraq war cost"
McCain answered --"right off the top of my head I don't recall the cost"--
and he glossed over the cost issue and went on to other things. (The answer is 3 to 4 Billion dollars p/w----a lot of money--)
I don't blame McCain for his convenient slip of memory.
If I were a presidential candidate who supported president Bush and his unnecessary war I would be embarassed and ashamed to tell the cost.
Thanks to Laura for another great show.
Hi Laura,
great interview with John McCain!!
My question to him if I had submitted it on time would have been;
Mr McCain, since you are such a strong supporter of free and open
markets how would you feel if ***you*** lost your job to a chinese
worker who makes an average pay of 60 cents per hour?
We have to remember that you Mr McCain are a millionaire and will never
be placed in the position of losing your income, home and sometimes
family from no or inadequate income as a result of global competition.
Thanks for the opportunity to respond.
Bill
