It isn't so much financial issues as legislative ones. Republicans in the House in particular hate this bill, so McCain is going to DC to try and persuade them to get on board and vote for it. Democrats are saying they will not pass the bill unless a majority of Republicans vote for it, so it's up to McCain to convince some of those same people who never really trusted him as a conservative that this plan is necessary. It's a high-risk move. If McCain can deliver Republicans (because, let's face it, Bush can't), he looks like a hero. If he can't he'll get spanked from now until election day for it.
