I think I am missing something... With the McCalin/Pain campaign suspended... and no bail out
agreed upon.

When/How do they un-suspend their campaign?


Isn't it now in everyone's best interest to not agree on any bail out so the repugs don't have an active campaign and no way to start the campaign back up without first agreeing on a bail out plan?



I say we stick it to them and stick it to them hard. If they want to walk off the court then fine. No reason for us not to continue to score points.

1. someone on CNN right now is saying he DIDN'T suspend at all...
ads still running, press conferences, speech, offices open - Palin press appearance Biden rally - SAME as what Obama did today.

3. Good point
Most here will agree that we would rather have President Obama negotiating with Congress on the bailout. So let McLame suspend his campaign until after an areement.

5. it's odd, I've never heard of a presidential campaign suspending itself -
the McCain clan are on some bizarre head-trip.
