McCain running scared. Suspends campaign.

[landscaper]

but he was quoting Joe Louis at the time.

I thought that was Muhamad Alli

 

[Asterix]

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.

Can't dodge it forever. McCain has mentioned before that knowledge of the economy isn't exactly his strong suit. He's trying to buy time and deflect any real debate because he doesn't want to risk seeming an out of touch fool.

 

[cypherpunk]

Woah, a full page without anyone coming to McCain's defense? I'm going to guess that's because his position is indefensible.

Does anyone believe the situation is at all better with him there than on the campaign trail?

 

[y2kmark]

If he still wins ...

and things get really tough - what's he going to do, suspend being president??

 

[Gyaos]

Bush Jr. is lying again during his bogus 9pm Great Depression speech. He still thinks Iraqi oil is going to pay back a person's mortgage.

McCain is toast. He's suspended from skool. CBS's Katie Couric interviewed Hitler Palin and asked her "what did McCain do to as a maverick in the Congress for the past 25 years?" And Palin said she'll have to get back to her.

Oh boy, they are American political shit.

Gyaos Baltar.

 

[skypilot]

McCain is running like a scared little girl. Even the republican spinmeisters can't say much positive about him.
Palin made an absolute fool out of herself with Katie Couric.
If things weren't so dire I'd be laughing.

 

[gramage]

and things get really tough - what's he going to do, suspend being president??

or the constitution, should simplify things.

.... eeeYUP. And then some.

Sounds like a good secretary, ahem personal assistant.

 

[Aardvark154]

Or on the other hand to quote The Times "John McCain yesterday seized back the initiative in the race for the White House by asking Barack Obama to postpone tomorrow's televised debate, suspend campaigning and join him for crisis talks with President Bush on the economy."

 

[y2kmark]

So Obama will make the meeting tomorrow ...

but won't let McSame duck the debate. The best response IMO.

LOL!!!!
WTF are you smokin'?!?!!??

Both McDubya and his Dizty broad, who will have to get back with us on what 'Maverick thingys' the OLD fart did the last 20+ years, looked like a couple of damned fools in front of the media yesterday!....

No wonder they both RUN LIKE HELL when they see news reporters coming!
Now the OLD fart wants to DUCK OUT of Debates and his Ditzy sidekick still won't face the Media!

What a couple of Gutless Wonders you are backing!

With a nice ass, but really, that's all she's got, just a nice ass.

Gyaos.

Look at it this way. The libs have more asses than anyone should have.

Perchance you can ask the Editors of The Times

The Times seems in good company since I've heard several political comentators (and I'm not speaking of Limbaugh rather NPR/CBC/BBC types) saying the same thing and that if Obama doesn't seem as if he's treating the matter serviously it will hurt him.

You're delusional. Explain to me how postponing a debate which will last an hour or two, which I'm sure they both have prepared for, well one of them anyway, will at all help the financial crisis facing the US? McCain is ducking, much the same George did at the convention, and frankly it's getting kind of embarrassing for them. There was even talk of the first presidential debate replacing that for the VP candidates. What a surprise.

 

[pussygalore]

And now Palin is giving some interviews...she just got shredded by Katie Couric on CBS news on foreign policy experience.. and is gradually providing a verbal record of sorts for questions at the VP debate.

 

[The Crunge]

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

I gonna flip-flop big time on my dumb-ass post. Mea culpa!

What flawed judgement on McCain's part. Do you think he can hear the sucking-sound of the air going out of his campaign?

The American NBC network didn't think she was "shredded."

If you disagree take it up with NBC.

Delay all opinions until Halloween lest you have a crystal ball.

Chill folks, 40 days could be 40 years in the desert.

Wise words Don although it's even past Halloween.

Always remember "Dewey beats Truman," in fact that's what the polls showed - two days before the election!
