McCain Seeks to Delay Friday's Debate!!!

AP - Republican John McCain says he’s directing his staff to work with Barack Obama’s campaign and the debate commission to delay Friday’s debate because of the economic crisis.

Yeah, uh, right…”because of the economic crisis.” Could it be that your cracker jack, 10-line plan to ease this economic crisis needs a little work before Friday?

“

One of the giant mortgage companies at the heart of the credit crisis paid $15,000 a month from the end of 2005 through last month to a firm owned by Senator John McCain’s campaign manager, according to two people with direct knowledge of the arrangement.

The disclosure undercuts a statement by Mr. McCain on Sunday night that the campaign manager, Rick Davis, had had no involvement with the company for the last several years.

$30,000 a month? Sign me up!

Senator John McCain’s campaign manager was paid more than $30,000 a month for five years as president of an advocacy group set up by the mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to defend them against stricter regulations, current and former officials say.

McCain’s words seem to always be at odds with the truth.

NO THANKS, JOHN MCCAIN

Seems like following John McCain would be like a big game of Clue. Which house? Which car? Which policy will he flip flop on today?

60 minutes...

they’re quizing john mccain about palin:

interviewer: “Can you see her as President of the United States?”
McCain: “Absolutely”

Are you kidding me? This guy has sold out so completely in the past six months, I think he believes his own b.s.

“ I suppose the McCain campaign’s hope is that when there’s a big crisis, people will go for age and experience. The question is, who in this crisis looked more presidential, calm and un-flustered? It wasn’t John McCain who, as usual, substituting vehemence for coherence, said ‘let’s fire somebody.’ And picked one of the most experienced and conservative people in the administration, Chris Cox, and for no apparent reason… It was un-presidential behavior by a presidential candidate. ”

“ In a crisis, voters want steady, calm leadership, not easy, misleading answers that will do nothing to help. Mr. McCain is sounding like a candidate searching for a political foil rather than a genuine solution. ”
