This is not a joke. Check out www.drudgereport.com

He has talked to Obama about suspending his campaign and asked Obama to join him in addressing legislation to address the financial crisis this country is facing. It is clear that the $700 billion bailout won't pass and McCain is going to Washington DC to do the job he was elected to do. McCain has asked for the debate on Friday to be rescheduled. So far Obama is saying he is going forward with the debate.
 
Wow, what leadership skills. he went from no clue to the man with a plan in what 10 days.

Mccain to the rescue!! and then if Obama dos not want a delay in the debate he is Unpatriotic.

Nobody can SPIN like the GOP.

I'M voting for Mcsame and the great north gov. NOT!
 
MC Cain cannot go to congress and debate at the same time. he is 72 he needs his nappy time.

-we need to go to Dc and Talk "because thats what a real patriot would do"
 
Didn't I just read somewhere that only 7% of Americans are for the bailout?

This sound slike a great way to get votes... NOT.
 
come on now old GW is going for the record. he wants to be the pres who built the biggest deficit just one more thing before Im out of office.

lets put one more nail in the coffin of the middle class!!

its not bad enough that they all have personal debt. WE need more national debt. "now listen if this bill does not pass how can everyone build more debt?"
 
You could look at it this way.

What if this is not political posturing?

What if McCain, having helped broker many fraction issues before with Dems & Republicans to get a bill passed, really thinks he's needed? (ie. he knows who to talk to, how to persuade them, build consensus, etc. having done it many times before - and also likely knows who owes who favors, etc. to get the thing agreed to and done).

What if Obama, realizing he has nothing to contribute there (ie. has no pull and prior relationships to get the bill though) sees no point in going?

After all, in 2010, it may make a greater difference to people whether or not the credit crisis caused their employer to not make payroll, and whether or not they could get a car loan, than whoever is president ... McCain might just see it that way (ex. it's better for me to lose the election and get called a quitter than for people to experience mass layoffs and double digit interest rates).

Clearly, some weird credit stuff is happening today, stuff that doesn't happen because of just some political spin talk...

McCain needs a time out.

Like a football team that is 4th down and 30 Yards.

The Quarterback is 72 Years old and needs an Oxygen hit.

With 40 days to go he wants to Suspend his Campaign ?

Priceless.

Wait, are you just presenting a possible reason, or do you actually believe that? That McCain himself is needed to go and help the bailout happen?
 
This is the man who has said that he really doesn't know much about the economy. This is the man who has said that the fundamentals of our economy are sound. He is impulsive and reactionary as well as cold, calculating and obviously frightened of his standing in current polls. I guess he should send Palin in his place, that's her job anyway, to stand in his absence, right?. What a ridiculous ploy.

Maybe. At any rate, he feels he needs to. Somehow, he brokered Republican/Democrat deals before when he was just a senator - that influence doesn't change. Now that he is Republican nominee, likely has even more influence (ex. everyone wants to owe him a favor in case he wins).

So the person who said "The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should," AND the person who said the 'fundamentals of our economy are sound' the day of a 500 point drop in the DOW and two weeks before the largest proposed bailout, is needed in washington for his economic expertise?
 
Well everyone knows ICEMAN was crap with out Maverick. And this Mavrick even has a goose as a co-pilot.

-"Maverick your writing checks you body just cannot cash- now go take a nap" LOL.
