Can You Imagine???

Can you imagine what would have been blasted on here if Obama would have said he's suspending his campaign to go back to Washington to work on the "financial" situation???  There would have been ALL CAPS threads on here saying OBAMA IS A COWARD or better OBAMA IS A MUSLIM COWARD!!!  Now instead we'll see ALL CAPS threads saying "MCCAIN ACTING PRESIDENTIAL."  Neither of these guys have been in Washington for the last year.  In fact - the less politicians involved in this the better.  He met with Romney and CEO's today - how about meeting with the "little guy" who's going to bail these carpetbaggers out....

Why does McCain need to suspend his campaign?
He already has told us that our economy is fundamentally sound.
This obviously is a bit of pandering. You know, bullsh it first, then country.
Though he does not have a clue about the economy, McCain is in Washington and will stay there as long as it takes to try to impress possible voters.
Good threatre, but as usual, little if any substance. Kind of like our current president, George W. Bush.
We can expect more of the same if and when McCain is elected. Four more years of Bush.

This is the right thing to do right now and I sure hope as sitting Senators, Obama and Biden do the same. To me it show's McCain is willing to do something about the situation and not just do speeches about it. This is like getting that "3AM phone call". McCain has picked it up and has made a decision. Will Obama pick it up or let it ring off the hook? Let's hope he picks it up too!

No - we don't need a guy who was involved with the Keating 5 negotiating on our behalf....

I would not blast Obama for not suspending his campaign. This is very important legislation, and it's just not good enough to vote along party lines.
