Obama will be at the debate, cool and collected.. and McCain will show up, hand on head

[Peacetrain]

Because he has been sooooooo busy saving the economy in Washington, (is he there yet?) and so busy busy with his suspended campaign, and his little running mate is suspending her campagin, so she can be busy busy busy too.

And this will give the right wing talking heads something to chatter about..because they are all so busy busy busy. (have you noticed how fast they have been talking lately)

This is a campagin in complete meltdown

1. That's exactly right. The insiders see it this way.

As Bubba said, Obama's going to win and it won't be close.

2. I fear that this whole fiasco was to lower his expectations

And he will walk into that debate with everyone talking about how he wanted to avoid it (so he must not be prepared). I fear this was his plan all along

3. Freepers are trying to portray McCain's attempt to back out as a "bold move"

Since when is breaking an appointment with the American people a "bold move?"
