Obama: McCain Wants To Run Health Care Like Wall Street

Update (10:21AM): Here's video from Daytona (thanks to commenter WithFeeling), including a number of other riffs on McCain's deregulation and dishonesty problems, and his Social Security privatization plan.

Original post: Earlier today, Barack Obama picked up on John McCain's article proposing Wall Street-style deregulation for the health care industry and tied it around his neck:

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Barack Obama unloaded on John McCain this morning at a rally in Daytona Beach.

The Democratic presidential nominee used McCain's own words to attack him as an opponent of federal regulation of the banking industry, said his rival's support for partial privatization of Social Security could jeopardize retirement security for many Americans and fought back on the question of which candidate has closer ties to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

I haven't seen video of the speech yet, but this line looks like it will play well:

"So let me get this straight -- he wants to run health care like they've been running Wall Street," Obama told the audience. "Well, Senator, I know some folks on Main Street who aren't going to think that's such a good idea."

The great thing is that McCain has nobody to blame but himself. I wonder when he is going to throw himself under the bus?
