McCain Suspends Campaign

No, unfortunately he didn't drop out of the presidential race. :(

Today McCain finally realized we're in an economic crisis! He wants to delay the first debate scheduled for Friday and go back to Washington to help get the bailout bill (that he won't say if he supports or not) moved through congress.

I actually think it's a smart move politically, but it's pretty much too late for him to pull this stunt to try to make Obama look like he's following McCain's lead. Unfortunately for McCain, as I write this, both Republicans and Democrats are working together to reach a consensus to modify the proposal the Bush admin tried to force on them. Even the Repubs won't give Bush a blank check anymore - they've completely lost their credibility, and getting Cheney out of his undisclosed location to strong arm them didn't work this time. That's right McCain, the bill is not in danger of failing as you claim and there's absolutely no reason why you can't multitask a bit! Your presence in Washington during this process would be just another gimmick to give you political points and you know it!

Hey McCain? Even though the scheduled debate was suppose to be about foreign policy, how about just talking about the economy? Or are you afraid to debate at all?
