i'm split between the two.
But McCain just earned major points in my book by wanting to put the 1st debate on hold to address the economic crisis. He's still a Senator. He still has a job to do. And so is Obama and Biden. And I think they need to follow suit and face this horrible economic crisis on our hands instead of bickering about who will be the next president.
I want to see work in action, not in words.

It doesn't matter whether he actually contribute anything in Washington. He just has to LOOK like he's contributing something. Remember, the average person isn't really sure what exactly McCain or any of the Senators will be doing (I know I'm not certain), but they do like the image of a guy "rolling up his sleeves" and going to work.
McCain is a gambler, a maverick really--willing to do these unorthodox things (pick Palin for VP, suspend the campaign) to win the election. He's gambling on the gullibility of the electorate.
McCain hasn't "suspended" shit. This very ploy of "suspending the campaign" shows he's campaigning harder than ever.
Oh, and deep. . .how much did they pay you?
Was it as much as they pay Sting?
I'm kidding of course (I think). I'm just amazed by the extent to which you've become a McCain apologist. Or maybe you're just REALLY playing devils advocate in here. . .I don't know.
