You mean like Republican Sen. Bill Frist's over the TV diagnosis of Terry Schiavo ? A diagnosis that made him a laughing stock from coast to coast, in a case that contributed mightily to the Republican's downfall. You mean like that?


Unfortunately, though it's fun to make fun of your heroes, the cases are different. Dr Lessin is not making a diagnosis, he is stating facts. Lets go over the quote one more time, this time highlighting a different portion:




Dr Lessin is referencing a ten year window in the survival rate for intermediate melanoma. McCain had his surgery approximately 8 years ago, therefore he cannot, as yet, be considered cured.
