I think Obama should show up, by himself, to the debate. Let him answer the moderators' questions and let McCain be absent for the whole thing.

That would be the best thing to do, in my opinion.

1. I think they call it an 'open chair debate'.
Either Obama should show, or have the VP debate go on.

3. Obama's people said that he'll hold a town hall meeting in MS
if McCain doesn't show.

4. On national news tonight McCain said "I hope there'll be enough of a plan..."
so that he'll be able to debate. He just blinked....gave himself a way back in to the debate. IMHO, he'll be there...He can't win for losing on this now. What a weasel!!!
