Obama
I have never seen someone talk so much and say so little

Obama the teleprompter man look out here come the teleprompter man.

McCain is shooting himself in the foot. He is just not doing the right thing. Anyone can see this! He is stopping his campain for something that he cannot help. Its no wonder that Obama leads every poll in the United States right now. If Obama stays with his words, which he is better at doing then McCain, it will show that he is the right canadate for this country. I was listening to Real Radio less then 10 minutes ago and they said that they cannot air a McCain ad until next Monday at the earliest. Maybe McCain just wants to take a nap on Friday night. He doesn't answer media questions anymore and he does a good job of keeping Sarah Palin out of the light. Even Laura Bush has said that she doesn't think Palin is ready.

The time for McCain to worry about the economic crisis was during all those years when he voted for unbridled deregulation and tax breaks for corporations sending capital and jobs overseas, while voting against sanctioning Red China for unfair, unbalanced trade practices. His sudden concern for the economy is disingenuous, for his policies provided the crucible for the meltdown. This economic crisis can't be solved by a quick-fix bailout whose white-collar corporate welfare is going to saddle generations of average Joe taxpayers for generations to come. Congress needs to take its time rather than rush into anything rashly -- so it's odd that McCain can't spare a few hours to make the debate.

You're so FULL of it Shadows..It was OBAMA that refused to engege in debates for so long..You're starting to actually believe your OWN drivel...LMAO..

Occupational Hazzard for a Lib...LMAO..

Sound to me like the liberals just might be a little upset over the idea of McCain who on his last legislation in 2006 for reform of regulations after several other attempts was voted down along party lines!! The last thing the Democrats need right now is for America to find out just how involved Democrats are in this mess, and how often (everytime) they shot down regulation!

This entire issue could very well become the entire Democrat party's "Blue Dress!"

ronald5740 - that's good one! I concur. What's so predictable, is Obama waffle-boy spouting off, "We need a debate more now than ever!" Where were you months ago, when McCAin was begging you to debate? Hiding behind Hillary's skirt? Getting tutoring from Biden on how to not say...uh..er...
What a shallow, shallow man

Abunai - hear anything on that lawsuit filed by Berg...against obamnuts? Today was supposed to be the deadline for a response;
re: his qualification due to citizenship issues. google it, there's a million hits

whos that plum? the Democrats? Interesting fact that there are STILL some 125 people overseas that fled the US to avoid having to testify against Democrats and Clinton in the 90s! Only one actually had a wife that could buy a pardon.....

Seriously plum19.. the Democrat's long record on obstruction of regulation and dealing with Freddie and Fannie is like the boy sticking his fingers in the leaking damm... The left is running out of fingers real fast...

There's a thread like this under the news category too,
so here's my thoughts (which I posted there).

I don't think McCain is afraid of the debate.
I believe he is USING the postponement of the debate
to make him look good, as if he and/or Obama has
the power to do something the other senators can not.

McCain hopes that by asking Obama to join him in postponing
the debate, voters will see him as a leader who
puts country first and is making a personal (token) sacrifice.
Obama is intelligent enough to see it for what it is; a ploy.

I believe voters will see through McCain's mask.

through Countrywide and had received extrmely favorable terms... Dodd received mortgages from Countrywide at below-market rates on his Washington, D.C. and Connecticut homes.

He’s ALSO the ONLY one in the ENTIRE Congress that received MORE money from Freddie/Fannie then Obama..

And Barney Frank,, CHAIRMAN of the Ethics Committee,, said that THIS was NOTHING worth investegating..

So,,,, YOU Lefties want to point fingers and Blame Republicans for this,, Eh???

ALL I Gotta say is..

BRING IT ON……….

The KEY point is that these debates are strictly topical and, as Cale has pointed out, the topic for this one is Foreign Policy; McCain’s strongest suit. So it makes no sense to claim that McCain is proposing a delay for any reason other than what he has said: to focus on addressing the economic crisis at the moment. I think it’s the sensible thing to do. Many people will not be able to focus on politics and foreign affairs until this crisis is properly addressed.

If McCain DIDN’T drop all things non-Economy Crisis (Letterman, Debate, etc.) his child-like opponents, who make it clear that they have no reasonable or legitimate criticisms of him, would be ALL OVER that. Claiming he doesn’t care about it, isn’t taking this once-in-a-century crisis seriously, etc., etc., etc. It’s so petty, immature, and monotonous. He did what any responsible seasoned American in his position should do. All this ridiculous criticism because he IS being responsible just makes it appear that his opponents wish Obama had thought to be more responsible, but since he didn’t, they defend his lack of experienced judgment by stepping on McCain. Honestly, regardless from which side it originates, that kind of immaturity from adult voters and politicians disgusts me.

Obama SAYS he wants to join McCain in his suggestion for a non-partisan approach, yet this is all you hear from his camp/supporters. It’ll be interesting to see just how long his side, the yentas on The View, and Tina Fey whine about THIS now. It got them, an otherwise irrelevant and intolerable group of has-beens or never-weres, in the news when nothing else does. So I guess you can’t blame them.
