1) Obama will say NO
2) Obama will say a President should be able to multitask and have a competent team handling crises. Does it mean that everytime there is a mega crises the world stops?
3) When folks review this stunt 3 weeks from now, mclie will look old and out of touch
Obama should keep marching on like a metronome.

You wont believe this sh!t
At 8:30 this morning, Senator Obama called Senator McCain to ask him if he would join in issuing a joint statement outlining their shared principles and conditions for the Treasury proposal and urging Congress and the White House to act in a bipartisan manner to pass such a proposal. At 2:30 this afternoon, Senator McCain returned Senator Obama's call and agreed to join him in issuing such a statement. The two campaigns are currently working together on the details.
Yaani Obama calld the dude in the morning and they agree on something for 2.30pm, then at 2.30pm the old devious F... announces he is "suspending" his campaign!
Suspend means what exactly?

A nation of over 300 million persons, and the world at large, awaits a debate this Friday, and that has been the case for a while. The debate is a serious scheduling matter, and Mr. Potato Head had better stop counting on hail maries every day. If he feels that his campaign has to engage in Washington D.C., he should be reminded that he has the mysterious Sarah Palin that he can send to D.C. while he attends to this prescheduled event.

I think OBAMA did a cool thing. Rubbished the calling off of the debate and suspending campaigns. I particularly liked the part where he said that a prezi has to able to handle more than one thing,other things dont have to be shut down just because there is a crisis. Could he have been alluding to McCains old age.
What about if McCain fails to appear on Friday for the debate?
It would be a great moment for Obama to connect McCains dissapearance with Bushes vanishing during (1) september 11 (2) Katarina (c) financial crisis.
McCain is toast

Punked!
Obama described their conversation as follows: "I proposed putting out the joint statement. He concurred with that. he then also said, 'I would like us to look at suspending the campaign and pushing the debates off.' I said, 'let's put out the joint statement first, and then get our campaigns to discuss this.'" Obama said he later saw McCain announcing his plans on television.

Now Bush is inviting Obama to White House.
This is definitely a tag team between Bush and McCain, trying to pull Obama out of his debate prep in Florida.
Not only is McCain trying to duck out of this debate, but also trying to chicken out her running mate by armtwisting the Presidential Debating Commission to push forward the Biden - Palin debate. This old fella is a big joke.
Every Tom, Dick and Harry realizes that McCain is afraid of debating Obama in the midst of this financial crisis...... brought about by McCains own deregulation philosophy and also against a backdrop of McCain's week-long inconsistencies, lies and contradicting statements.
McCain's almost certain Obama will embarass him by calling the lies and contradictions out. He's definitely got word Obama is seriously preparing for a real debate.
He's afraid too Obama will toboa out to 100 million American viewers that his campaign manager Rick Davis has been receiving $ 15,000 per month from recently bailed Fannie Mae until just last month when they were almost collapsing. ...........
The most significant thing is that amidst all this.......Americans are already voting. Early voting has already began in many states and it is now estimated 30 to 45 million Americans will vote either early or through absentee ballot. In Florida and Ohio, many minorities who don't want to put a chance for the Nov 4 long lines are responding to Obama's mobilization machinery.
Things look pretty good. McCain wants this crisis he contributed towards to dissapear. And Boy, who saw a clip of Biden's foreign policy speech today. Thats a blitzkrieg to remember.

www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/09/24/AR2008092403918.htmlMcCain's Ploy By Harold Meyerson Thursday, September 25, 2008; Page A19 Slipping in the polls? Concerned that Americans may be paying more attention to the declining economy -- and even supporting economic regulation again -- than to your own stellar leadership abilities? If you're named John McCain, the answer became apparent yesterday afternoon -- make the solution to the economic crisis all about you. Suspend your campaign. Pull out of tomorrow's debate -- a trivial exercise merely allowing Americans to judge the two candidates side by side. Change the terms of the nation's economic discussion from the course we should take, and the defects of the laissez-faire model that got us here, to the indispensability of John McCain, leader of leaders. (Besides, if tomorrow's debate goes on as scheduled, it will doubtless focus on the economy as well as foreign affairs, its announced topic. McCain sees foreign policy as one area where he can outshine Obama. Only by rescheduling the debate after the crisis has passed can he be sure he will have his moment in the foreign policy sun.) Yesterday's Post-ABC News Poll showed Barack Obama opening a nine-point lead over McCain, chiefly because of the economic anxiety flooding the nation and the belief of most Americans that Obama is more in touch with economic realities than McCain is and has a better sense of how to navigate both the current crisis and America's long-term economic challenges. But the McCain plan for victory this November never counted on Americans picking McCain on the basis of the issues. As his strategists saw it, they had to confine the discussion to a comparison of the character of the two candidates. Alas for McCain, reality intruded over the past week, distracting the public from McCain's stellar attributes as a decisive leader with news of an impending economic collapse. So the task for his managers has been to diminish this new story to just one chapter in the ongoing saga of John McCain, the man who rides to the rescue. Can McCain pull this off -- persuading the public to forget how he and his fellow Reagan Republicans changed the nation's economic rules in ways that allowed Wall Street to run amok, and refocusing its attention on his decisiveness at this moment of crisis? I doubt it. For one thing, America may be a republic of amnesiacs, but deep in some seldom-used brain lobe, it does recall that its two political parties have differed on questions of regulation and stimulating the economy, a comparison that does not now work in Republicans' favor. For another, presidential debates aren't distractions from the business of the nation. However confining their formats may at times be, they are central to the business of democracy, and suspending that business so that a lowest-common denominator consensus can be reached in Washington -- or so that McCain can complain that Obama is an obstructionist if he doesn't go along with McCain's proposals -- is an affront to American voters. McCain's ploy was transparent. To counter the public's preference for Obama's economics over his own, he would get both of them in a room and emerge proclaiming that they had reached agreement, that they had no differences. In fact, they have very real differences. McCain wants to retain tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans; Obama wants to create tax cuts for all but the wealthiest 10 percent of Americans. Obama favors policies -- through investments in infrastructure and education and through legislation enabling Americans to join unions without fear of being fired -- to build the base of the economy, while McCain's record is one of opposition to such policies. Obama favors trade agreements only when they raise labor and environmental standards with our trading partners and protect them here at home; McCain has supported every trade pact that has weakened such standards and has never said one word about protecting our standards or raising them abroad. Comparisons such as these are odious, however, to McCain's prospects. He cannot win on the strength of his positions. He can only win on the strength of his character. Problem is, McCain's character, as we have seen in his selection of Sarah Palin as his running mate, is heavy on decisiveness and weak on judgment. In this, despite his campaign's protestations, a McCain presidency would be very much an extension of George W. Bush's. The president helped McCain out last night by inviting both candidates to Washington today to put their imprimatur on a deal that seemed near completion. At the risk of making McCain's gesture look less heroic, he also made it look less self-absorbed. But self is McCain's selling point. He is either the man on horseback riding to the rescue, or he is nothing -- or, more precisely, the loser come November. Obama, Lord knows, has his flaws, but he does not seem to believe that the nation's crises are primarily about him. meyersonh@washpost.com
