McCain's Political Theater?

I think McCain's "suspension" of his campaign to go to DC and sit around while Congress hammers out a bailout plan is just political theater.  I am not sure that McCain's presence is required at all.  He will need to vote on a bill either way, but he can fly in, vote and be back on the trail.  Also, I think postponing the debate is another political stunt.   You know, "country first."  Our country's representatives cannot work on this program without McCain and his campaign lobbyists sitting there sounds a bit ridiculous.   I think this political theater will play well to the base, but I think it makes McCain look like he cannot multi-task well enough to campaign then go vote on a bill.

McCain is a grandstander plain and simple!! he DID NOT suspend his campaign! look around folks, he is still airing ads, he is still asking for donations on his web site, his campaign aids are still holding rallys, his VP pick is still stumping around.


He went to DC to put on a great big show! and in doing so he has caused confusion all around. And he is NOT looking out for the middle class. He went in and made a fuss because there were provisions that would put a cap on how much wall street could make off this deal. He was mad because his cronies were not going to get enough money out of the deal. He really wants to sock it to all of us and you are just not seeing it.


Take off your blinders, he is NOT for the working class!! he is for the rich and the rich only. just like himself!


and Palin she is just an airhead I know more about foreign affairs than she does. I have been to Canada, if it were her saying that it would count in her little airhead mind. She is NOT good for America and she is NOT good for women! she is an embarrassment to women.

I'm curious, where and when did Obama say "Call me if you need me"? Do you have a link of him saying this? or is it just Conservative "heresay"?

I have a different opinion on what McCain and Obama should be doing.
