Obama Ad: McCain Will Tax Your Health Benefits And Cut Medicare
The Obama campaign has another TV ad in targeted states, warning voters that their health benefits will be taxed under John McCain's plan and he'll cut Medicare too, in an effort to both court older voters and to neutralize the tax issue by turning it right back on the GOP:
