The McCain campaign is coming apart.
This is so surreal. McCain's campaign want to stonewall any real debate or analysis of him or Gov. Palin right up until the election. He is done. |

The McCain campaign is coming apart.  Im not so sure about that. Ive had to train for public speaking and Ive had to do public debates and in my estimation it is wise of McCain to try to avoid debating Obama. Some people have a natural aptitude for public speaking and debate, (and Obama is one of these people). McCain is at a disadvantage in a debate format with Obama (most people would be). If he can get out of it he is making a good move. Obama has everything to gain from a succesful debate but McCain really dont have anything to gain from it.

Maybe it is best for the old man to drag his tail back to the mess he helped to create with his "deregulating" mantra. I think Obama should go ahead and use that time to talk about how all this came to past in the first place.

McCain looks incredibly weak for wanting this "time out." This isn't about the crisis or the country. It's about his floundering campaign. What next, delay the election?

The McCain campaign is coming apart. This is so surreal. McCain's campaign want to stonewall any real debate or analysis of him or Gov. Palin right up until the election. He is done. I think thats how they are gonna win. Especially with Palin. As long as they can just produce pictures of her but keep her from talking (to the media)they will win. Basically the same with the old man. If they can keep Obama from making him look like an old fool then they will win. Its because Obama is the person that must define himself to the American people. The folks already feel like they know McCain.He is more familiar. The "burden" is upon Obama. Using a sports analogy, McCain can sit back and "play defense" and win the game. Obama is the one that must "score a touchdown" to win.

This maneuver was nothing more than a POLITICAL PLOY. You bought it as did many other gullible people. "Putting America first before politics." What a JOKE! Maybe we should just do away with the elections this year and keep BUSH! After all, we are at WAR! not like anyone would really notice a difference..

Humm some posters seem to buy whatever McCain says, or is reported to have said as long as it's reported by Fox News, hook line and sinker. Hummm.... From Fox News: The McCain campaign issued a statement today urging all loyal republicans to jump off a cliff earlier today! "Uniting and acting like lemmings will prove your loyalty" said a McCain campaign spokesman. /waits anxiously for some posters to jump |

You know, there is a real possibility that the election could be postponed.
A massive economic crisis, with runs on banks and shortages of food and a panicking population would be enough to declare a national emergency. Then the real trouble would start. |
