Rahm Emanuel says they can do BOTH-work on the Bailout Bill AND have the debate
McCain asked Obama to "join him" and he apparently hasn't agreed yet.

4. McCain is speaking now saying he WILL suspend his campaign to work "as Americans"

to get the bill done and is "working with" Obama's campaign to join him. What a PR move.

9. It will backfire because, of course, Presidents can
work on more than one thing at once.

6. Amazing, considering he invented the blackberry and all.
You figure that he'd be all over the multitasking.

8. After just listening to McCain's short speech, he still says the debate should go on
since there's still a war going on and they will still be able to work on this bailout bill.

10. Agreed,
Edited on Wed Sep-24-08 02:19 PM by spokane
thats what I say, they can do both, is this the way he wants to
run the country, when Iran and Russia are putting pressure the
Government should take a time out from important issues.

This shows McCain for what he is, he cannot do two things at the
same time. How can he be a leader if he can't juggle his jobs.


Its a FALSE CHOICE.... as per Rep Rahm Emmanuel.

12. He's not even on those committees that draw up the plan
I saw McLame run off the stage after his statement... his posture looked defeated.

13. I'm glad he spoke out
I was wondering about the level of his support for Obama.
