4. I do too, I don't see how anyone with a brain could not see this political stunt with
McCain trying some kind of a underhanded deal.

13. Well, only 10% think the debate should be postponed according to
SurveyUSA. Even with a margin of error, I don't think there's much arguing with that.

7. He's suspending his campaign which includes postponing the debate while
he "works on the financial crises"

11. Thanks for the update.
I have since caught-up, again, thanks......Mccain is running a "trickster campaign". He is not worthy of even being on any ballot!

6. Jeez - they've really put him in an unenviable position.
Regardless of how Obama would like to handle it, he's pretty much got to acquiesce, right? He can't FORCE McCain to show up. Unless it's like Elvis's jacket.

14. Let him show up and take questions from the moderators and audience.
Open it up to anything, not just foreign policy.

9. This worries me....................
as I believe this is a "trap" for Obama. I know how DU and I feel about this - McSame just doesn't want to face Obama Friday night - but I don't know how others less "informed" might take this. ?????????????????????
