Change is risky. When you change things there is always a chance that they could get worse. Although some people can't afford to see doctors now, if Obama was elected and gave everyone health care, some of the people who couldn't afford to see doctors now might end up going to quacks who would amputate their limbs or make them even sicker with untested drugs. Then they would be worse off than they are now. As McCain pointed out in his speech we could even go backward if we didn't have the right kind of change.

We don't need to take a risk on a President who could make things even worse than they already are. We need a President like McCain who, when the telephone rings at 3:00 in the afternoon, waking him up from his nap, would be ready to answer it and solve whatever crisis needed to be solved. Unlike the inexperienced Obama, McCain was born the day before yesterday and he's forgotten more than Obama knows. He's seen a lot of slick-talking con men in his day, promising to make things better before they slipped out of town absconding with his money and he knows that the only change you can really believe in is hardly any change at all. That's the kind of change America deserves. Why fix something that isn't broke? America may be getting on in years and may not be as quick on its feet as it used to be but let's not trade it in for a brand-new America when the old one works just fine.
