McCain has always been the one to collect the leaders right-center-left on issues that have become unmoveable. From war, to judicial nomenations, energy, and now economy. I think he is just drawn to such challenges.

The left however is trying to spin this as an inability to multi-task, and that is going to backfire, as we all remember that we couldn't find time to pass energy bills for gas prices, and when Harry Reid the top leader of the Senate announces that "We just don't know what to do" should send citizens into a maddening panic! I suggest the Obama camp look over their own shoulder before pointing any fingers...

I think what McCain is doing is showing everyone how much he loves this country. No other Presidential candidate has ever suspended his campaign to work on the economy or other issues affecting America during an election year. As for Obama suspending his campaign yea I think he will. When H*LL freezes over. In other words no I do not think so.

McCain's suggestion that the presidential debates be moved to the scheduled VP debate makes it quite obvious that Palin isn't ready. And for that matter he probably isn't either unless he can get another deal like he did for the Rick Warren sham.

If Palin is ready, why not flip flop the VP and presidential debate days? Have the VP debates in place of the Presidential debates and vice versa.

McCain doesn't have to be in Washington at all times to have a part in the bail-out. As Obama stated, this is exactly the time that the people need to hear from the candidates regarding their plans to fix the messes that we are in.

The debate will only require a short amount of time if McCain wants to be involved in the development of bail-out legislation. If he was a true conservative he might even oppose such bail-outs for private businesses.

yea sensiblejoe.. way back when.. lets just start with 2006 when McCain's legislation was brought before the House and it was met with a straight down the line party vote, and was crushed by the Democrats on that line! So bad that the bill was not even put to the Senate!

Or maybe one of the times prior to that like 2005, or hey maybe when Sen. Dole herself brought forth legislation in 2003, 2004, 2005, etc and ALL were either blocked by Democrats in a fillabuster as a minority OR crushed by Democrat lead committee!

Only people being disinguineous here Joe buddy is liberal hacks such as yourself who just can't bring yourself to actually bring the voting records or facts to the table....

As I said..OBAMA'S NOT the President..He's a SENATOR and he's NOT where he's SUPPOSED to be..

THIS will be decided LONG before the election..

IN his monumental ARROGANCE he has miscalculated BADLY..

THIS thing,, one way or the other,, will Culminate in the NEXT few days..

IF CONGRESS succeeds In their efforts it will be seen that OBAMA had NOTHING to DO with it EVEN though he'll TRY to claim that the plan was ALL HIS like he did with the Surge.....

IF they FAIL it will be seen as though HE was the ONLY one that didn't even THINK it important enough to TRY..He'll claim THEN that it FAILED because they DIDN'T use his plan but THAT won't help..

He's STILL not there and THAT'S all people will see..

OBAMA doesn't GET Ideas..He STEALS them...

MARK my words..Before this is over it'll BACKFIRE on him JUST like everything ELSE he's tried to pull like that ad about McCain not being able to use a computer..

As for this business of Interviews,,

Obama gets on “This week with George Stephanopoulos” and Lets slip that he IS a Muslim and Ole Georgie Boy COVERS for him by CHANGING the Claim..”You mean Christian,,Don’t you??”

“Eh?? Oh,, OH YEAH,,I MEANT Christian..”

Palin gets interview by Charlie Gibson who OBVIOULY viewed her with contempt and asks,,
Basically,,

Do you think you’re ready for this job? SHE responds by saying YES and a Gibson,, while looking down his nose at her,, retorts with another question in effect,,

Don’t you think that THAT’S a bit ARROGANT??


Now..I don’t know WHERE the MSM ever got the Idea that THEY are the FORTH Branch of the Government and that ALL candidates MUST go through THEM but I LIKE the response that Palin came up with in answer to all this criticism..Basically,,She said..

I’ve BEEN answering REAL questions the WHOLE time out there in the REAL world by REAL people..

I’m NOT here to Please the NEWS agencies..I’ll run my campaign the way that I see fit..Not the way that THEY do..

If it were ME,, I’d tell the OBAMA Propaganda Machine,, the MSM,, that EVEN some Leading Democrats have come out and said were IN THE TANK for OBAMA,, to kiss MY @$$ too..

Now,,,,, THAT’S what I call,,,

LEADERSHIP…

LMAO..

McCain has INFLUENCE..Obama Doesn't..It's as SIMPLE as that..

I was really really really looking forward to this debate. Come back here, McCain!

I wouldn't say that McCain has much more influence than Obama. What he does have, though, is something that B. Hussein Obama will never have- credibility.

Unlike Obama, McCain has actually worked across the aisle. He has taken much flak from his core support in doing that, but he has shown the courage to go against the grain. Obama has done nothing but supply more and more of the liberal koolaid.

You KNOW..I find it iNTERRESTING that Harry Reid,,the DEMOCRAT Leader in the Senate said that NOTHING will get passed if McCain ISN'T there..THAT';S INFLUENCE..

He DIDN'T say that about Obama..HE could care LESS if Obama shows up at ALL..He's USELESS..THAT'S what it MEANS to be IRRELEVANT...

It's a SHAM..He's NOT "doing both things"..He's SHIRKING his responsibilities in favor of OPPORTUNITIES...

THAT'S NOT MULTI-TASKING,,It's EXPLOITATION...

TM6068, you are usually able to do much better. You tried to change the subject, turn the point around, etc. but not very effectively.

The subject was McCain's attendance at the debate that both candidates (including him) agreed to. It is not about the town hall meetings that McCain wanted so that he might be able to control things as he did the Rick Warren interviews. He probably also wanted Obama to contribute financially to his campaign, but things just don't always work "his" way.

Try again, I have confidence that you can do much better.

McCain doesn't want to debate Obama for the soul reason that he his a horrible debator. Why not put it off for a week then come back saying, "Well now we simply have no time to debate, because of all the effort we put into finding a solution to the economic crisis." That's a sound strategy on his part.

I believe that Obama is doing the correct thing here. He is atop of the situation from what I am hearing and giving his opinion to his fellow democrats. His opinion holds alot of sway in the democratic party so anyone who thinks he has no influence is simply deluded.

As for McCain he has always tried to bring everyone together then once there's a decision that wont backfire on him that's been agreed to by both party's he settles in and votes along the line. I think that's the definition of Maverick, one who votes what everyone else votes. Right?

cynpro....open your mind and grow up.....now they are senators do the job you were sworn to do...obama wants to vote present he doesn't want to be on the record....he is a joke..
