John McCain on John McCain\"Meet the Press\" 10:38amInterviewTOPIC: Polls, Economics, Political Philosophy\n\nTRANSCRIPT:[...]\nBROKAW: One of the things you\'ve bee saying, over the course of your campaign, is that Senator Obama has neither the experience nor the judgment to be President of the United States. We\'ve got some polls on how he\'s doing with the American Voter on some of the critical issues of the day. This is the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, that was taken from October 17th to October 20th [...READING POLL NUMBERS: HEALTHCARE- OBAMA +39; ECONOMY- OBAMA+21; HOUSING CRISIS- OBAMA+21; TAXES- OBAMA +14; IRAQ- MCCAIN +5]. This is notthe pundits or the media elite, this is a broad based poll across the country...\n\nMCCAIN: That I don\'t agree with, I don\'t agree with...\n\nBROKAW: People making judgments about who\'s qualified to...\n\nMCCAIN:...their with their conclusion that I\'m 11, or 12 or 14 point- whatever it is. We have polls,including I think a Zogby poll, showing us three or four points behind. So if you want to continue referring to a poll that I disagree with, I have to start out our conversation- I don\'t agree with that. We are closing, and we have been closing.BROKAW: But it\'s not the only poll, Senator, a number of polls show...\n\nMCCAIN: Oh, and it\'s not the only poll that shows us close, so, ya know, I\'m sure we don\'t want to spend the morning arguing about polls that are accurate or inaccurate, but I will stand before the American people with my viewthat I think that we cannot find small business people and their, or their employ, small business people, who have employees without health insurance that he\'s gonna fine them if they don\'t have the insurance policy that they want, that Senator Obama wants them to have. That if they have childrenthat don\'t have health insurance that Senator Obama wants them to have, that they will be fined, that he wants to spend an additional trillion dollars, I\'ll stand on those issues, I\'ll stand on them and I\'ll take the verdict of the American people, and I guarantee you that two weeks from now you will see, this has been a very close race, and I believe that I\'m gonna win it. \n\nBROKAW: I don\'t want to dwell on these polls unduly...\n\nMCCAIN: Here were go again...\n\nBROKAW: Even if you had a big margin of error...\n\nMCCAIN: I can give you, I can show you, again, a Zogby poll, and our poll and otherpolls that will show different numbers than the one you\'re showing... \n\nBROKAW: Those are the big universe polls...\n\nMCCAIN: You\'re starting out, in all due respect, with fundamental assumptions that I don\'t agree with. So it\'s hard for me to respond to assumptions that I don\'t agree with. \n[...]LABEL: JM JM NBC 10-26-08 10.38 (LAD#55) Zz 2000, bush, common, economics, experience, george, hardball, john, mccain, meet, philosophy, polls, president, press, taxes, the, tracking, w.
