We've got insurance, but it doesn't seem to cover much. He's been out of work for two weeks.
ANNOUNCER [v/o]: Worried sick about health care costs? John McCain's plan won't help.
McCain's health care plan would raise taxes for many families and would deny coverage for pre-existing conditions like cancer.
