McCain running scared. Suspends campaign.

[Dr69]

Says it is because of the nation's "ecnomic crisis" and he is going back to Washington to work on the bailout proposals.

Umm.. Isn't this the same guy who said that the fundamentals of the economy are strong?

I wonder if McSame suspending his campaign has anything to do with the fact that he is dropping like a stone in the polls.

 

[Gyaos]

If Obama suspends the campaign and works "together" with McCain's, I have lost all credibility in Obama. It's a McCain trick to win the White House. Like delaying the debate, BOGUS! Hide information from the American public as long as possible!

What Obama can do is refuse the delay of the debate and make McCain look as weak as possible. DO NOT give McCain and his Hitler running mate any breaks. The American public HAS NO money. Delaying everything for bankers is stupid.

Screw McCain. What's next, delay the election? Remember that Bush Jr. proposal in 2004? Like playing back a CD track.

Cancelling the debate is a brilliant move by McCain.

US Economy on the Brink of Collapse

Perhaps McDubya has just been told economy is in worse shape than Team 'w' lets on.

Dire contingency plans are being implemented and they ain't pretty!....

Army Unit to Deploy in October for Domestic Operations

Beginning in October, the Army plans to station an active unit inside the United States for the first time to serve as an on-call federal response in times of emergency. The 3rd Infantry Division’s 1st Brigade Combat Team has spent thirty-five of the last sixty months in Iraq, but now the unit is training for domestic operations. The unit will soon be under the day-to-day control of US Army North, the Army service component of Northern Command. The Army Times reports this new mission marks the first time an active unit has been given a dedicated assignment to Northern Command. The paper says the Army unit may be called upon to help with civil unrest and crowd control. The soldiers are learning to use so-called nonlethal weapons designed to subdue unruly or dangerous individuals and crowds.

He can run but he can't hide .... as Ronnie Reagan said a couple years ago.....

It will be a destructive move if Obama refuses, shows up at the debate podium and McCain is NO WHERE to be seen. Those AMERICAN NETWORKS have space allocated, so if McCain is a no-show and Obama DOES SHOW up, that debate is NOT going to be delayed or canceled. Obama's mantra is against "Washington" and "Washington Insiders". So if Obama, counters showing McCain running away, not even showing up at a debate for the AMERICAN PEOPLE about to change the landscape, Obama wins big. Especially when everyone hates Bush Jr. and McCain, in essence is Bush Jr. III.

The real reason McCain is suspending is the financial collapse can't fund his election, so he's out until the 3-page $1 Trillion document re-funds his campaign. A 3-page document, that's it? America rests on 3 pieces of white paper in 2008? I don't buy that. This is not 1776. Arrest them.

actually he probably can. keep running long enough and it's election day and he can count on stupidity and peoples refusal to change to get him the win. smart strategy.

 

[Gyaos]

Republicans created financial collapse. No money in banks. McCain suspends. McCain has no money. Real reason. Obama refused government matching campaign funds (funds from AIG), he has money. He keeps going.

Gyaos.

 

[Gyaos]

Obama is not suspending the debates...

A variation on the dog ate my homework. You might just as well say George was "brilliant" for not showing up at the GOP convention.

Maybe McDubya will cower and share a bunk with DICK in his bunker!...

 

[The Crunge]

Pains me to say this, but McCain just made a brilliant political manouveur.

Funny, I look at it as McDubya running to hide in DICK's bunker!....

 

[Gyaos]

I'm John McCain and I "suspend" this message.

 

[S.C. Joe]

Obama--"a president should be able to do more than 1 thing at a time"

Good, stick it to him.

Washigton Post poll today shows Obama opening up a clear lead....wait until the 2 debates are over....lets see how good she does as well....

 

[Mao Tse Tongue]

Can you say "Wag the fucking dog" on McCain's part.

 

[Berlin]

Maybe McDubya will cower and share a bunk with DICK in his bunker!...

McCain is running, buying time alright.

Sure. I won't be surprised some undecided will buy into his excuse.... pardon me.... . .. I mean " reason " for suspending his campaign.

 

[The Crunge]

How?

He is shouting his RNC mantra, "Country First." How can red-white-and-blue patriots not love that.

I agree with most of you that he is postponing his inevitable debate lynching, but his stated reasons will resonate very well with very many.

 

[y2kmark]

Maybe he did say it ...

He can run but he can't hide .... as Ronnie Reagan said a couple years ago.....

but he was quoting Joe Louis at the time.
