Quote:Originally posted by deadlockvictim: The Palin/McCain team has suspended their campaign - and I'm just guessing here, but it was probably because Senator McCain's pants caught on fire. But, for whatever reason, (cough, grandstanding, cough), the announcement of the suspension made me wonder... given the chance, what would I suspend...

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Quote:At 4:00 p.m., (ABC News reported via email) George Bush, whose approval rating on the economy is at 16% with a 76% disapproval, will be hosting the White House photo-op (that's what Barney Frank is calling it). John McCain will be there for that session. Let's be clear: McCain will miss the meeting about substance. But, McCain will be there for the grandstanding.

Quote:Originally posted by Hero: I note for the record that the only candidate to run from debates has been Barrack Obama who promised to debate McCain anytime, but then declined to have a series of town-hall debates in the weeks prior to the conventions.

Quote:Obama is twenty gazillion times the speaker that McCain is. He will win every debate including Foreign Policy. That's why they're chickening out. If McCain looses the Foreign Policy debate just stick a fork in him. It's all downhill from there.

Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Too late - McCain's already won the foreign policy debate, by dint of the fact that Bush - and even Palin - are now following Obama's lead in foreign policy. Obama wanted more troops in Afghanistan, so Bush made it so; Obama wanted cross-border strikes into Pakistan on actionable intel, so Bush made it so; now even Palin has said that Obama's plans regarding Afghanistan are better than McCain's, when in her interview with Katie Couric, Palin stressed that we need more troops in Afghanistan, and we need them sooner rather than later - just as Obama has repeatedly said!
