If you want to quote:
If it's poor judgment is what we are after, than, Obama's ties to a known self admitted domestic terrorist, ties to a church that preaches racism and hatred of white people, and his involvement with inner city Chicago slum lords as their lawyer. Well hell to high water, the guy with a poor judgment almost 20 years ago, who has definitely addressed the current economic crisis head on and is suspending his campaigning is the one I am going with, and that's John McCain.
Mr. Obama is still refusing to drop the debate... perhaps he'd just like to vote as "Present" again.
Bodhi... with all due respect.... just stop. I know your entire world is going up in a poof of flames today, as McCan't is going down in history as the idiot that he is. Our democratic process does not suspend. It does not yield to the pressure of the world...it rises up and it
takes hold of that world. The debates went on when the Iranian hostage crisis was at full bore, and there was much debate about a much larger conflagration brewing with the Reds....and that debate had a
sitting president in it. The debates went on after the USS Cole lay gashed open by a terrorist attack, and the rest of the world held its' breath at our restraint. I wonder if Mr. McCain will suspend his presidency, whence falls its' first real test. If this economic problem is really that close to "cratering"....then we all might as well just start eating our money.
The Republicans would have gotten so much more mileage if McCain said.... "I have to go to Washington to address this issue.... Mrs. Palin will continue in my stead, until I return."
YOU DO NOT CANCEL THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS.
Today, mark my words, is Mr. McCain doing two things.
1) hitting the reset button, because all the battleground states' polls are falling so far south for him, he's almost an "also ran". (dropped 8 points in PA, 5 in Ohio, 11 in Michigan...and is now
even in Florida..WTF!!?)
2) Finding a way to
cancel the VP debate. After all, you can't cancel a presidential debate.....there has to be 3, so you can "say" who really won in your opinion.... and the fact they've been keeping Palin in a glass box is telling. I wonder how her little "foreign policy school" has been going this week? Her debate with Biden scares the hell out of that campaign. You watch, The VP debate will be offered up to cancellation due to this "crisis".
Your towing of the party line is admirable, if not misplaced. I salute your vigor.... but not your blind position.
