McCain Suspends Presidential Campaing (Obama Responds)

http://www.clmnews.com/
In a stunning twist today, AZ Senator John McCain has announced that he will be suspending his presidential campaign to focus on the countrys current economic crisis. Senator McCain also announced his request to have Fridays first presidential debate postponed until after an agreement on the controversial Wall Street rescue plan can be reached. Senator McCain made his surprise announcement before a stunned crowd in New York City. _______________________________.
Senator Obama responded in a late afternoon news conference. Obama was careful in his remarks, but managed to still slide in a few subtle political jabs. The Democratic Nominee emphasized that the next president of the United States would be required to handle more than one crisis at a time and made clear that the American People now more than ever needed to take place. _________________________
Both Democrats and Republicans have come out in full force to manage the days spin. Democrats like NY Senator Chuck Schumer and Senate Majority leader Harry Reid have both come out to criticize McCains request and virtually called it a political stunt. Right leaning cable news outlet Fox News offered a parade of analysts applauding the move and accuse Obama of playing partisan games at a time when the nation is in imminent crisis.

I like how he suspended his campaign. Then campaigns at Clinton's global initiative this morning sept. 25th. Is his campaign suspended or not. I think McCain is a total loser. He doesn't want to debate because his pole numbers are in the crapper. I think McCain should just drop out of the race all together.

McCain did make it to D.C. and if it weren't for the close-minded liberals he would have made more of a difference. McCain called Obama out on some of his many lies last night and it was so beautiful.

The sad fact is the electoral college will decide this election. Historically, any other party than Dems/Reps will only gain a small % of American votes. Perhaps if we get rid of the electoral college the other parties will have a chance (because they will B heard in the media). Anyway:

McSame suspended his campaign and cancelled his appearance on David Letterman only 2 show up with Katie Couric. Guess he really wasn't in such a hurry 2 return 2 DC. Political stunt = FAIL!

All I know is McCain was definately wrong for suspending his campaign 37 days before the election. Now Obama Has raised up to 260 E.V. & McCain has dropped to 200 E.V. giving Obama a 10 E.V. home stretch to that winning # 270. McCain still needs 70 to get there with only 78 E.V.s up for grabs. He's gonna have a very hard time within the next 29 days to gain 70 out of 78 of those E.V.s w=heras Obama won't have to even struggle to get that 10.

If in a family the father spent the whole family money drinking therefore the kids will not have money for food or clothes so they-the kids- have to work to keep the father's drinking habits..and may kids will get some food...

McCain showed up after the work was done, he is a sleazy fucking liar. But in the words of Bill Maher, we as the public are too stupid to vote and January 20th 2009 John McCain will be sworn in as president of the US with a vice prez who is a certified lunatic. Again we will have screwed the military, the veterans, the middle class and anyone who wanted a fair wage and great education for their children.
