Americans Respond to McCain Stunt

Americans Respond to McCain Stunt

SurveyUSA has just completed a snap poll on response to John McCain's request to cancel or postpone the presidential debate.

Several questions. But two key ones.

What to do about debates?

Hold as Scheduled 50%
Hold with Econ Focus 36%
Postpone 10%

Suspend Campaigns?

Suspend 14%
Continue 31%
Refocus on Fin. Crisis 48%

Would canceling the debates be good for America? 14% say yes.


McCain Calls Time Out

WTF? You can’t just stop the presidential campaign — what does that even mean?

Meanwhile, I think walking and chewing gum at the same time is part of the president’s job.


"Erratic."

10. That's his second major fuck up
Palin was his first.

Can he go for the trifecta?

6. This was not a brilliant McCain move
What is amazing is that there isn't that much deviation over the Demographics. It should be noted though that people were not told that McCain wanted it postponed - so this shows the true feeling - before partisanship is applied.

7. I'm wondering what FcCain's next stunt will be
He must be hiring Hollywood screenwriters to come up with new twists in the plot.
