McCain's Political Theater?
| Wed, 09-24-2008 - 3:39pm |
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.

If they aren't on the committee, what exactly are they going to do?
I understand what you are saying, that they have a job to do.
I like to think I'm logical, so I'm glad someone else thinks so, too!
They could use the time voting for other bills, amendments, etc.
