This is a clip of what he said on This Week with George Stephanopoulos on Sunday 9/28/08.

This is what the NY Time reported the day before (9/27):

"After interrupting his presidential campaign to come back to Washington on Thursday morning to try to push forward a $700 billion bailout deal, Mr. McCain remained in his condominium in Arlington, Va., until 12:30 p.m. Saturday, when he emerged and made a one-minute trip in his motorcade to his campaign headquarters around the corner. [...]

Asked why Mr. McCain did not go to Capitol Hill after coming back to Washington to help with negotiations, Mr. Salter replied that 'he can effectively do what he needs to do by phone.'"
