6. I guess he plans on showing up to vote them for the first time since April |
|
Why is he still getting paid? IMHO they shouldn't have to give up their seats to run, but they should at least have to take a leave of absence.

8. He can send a substitute, like Palin, or |
|
Obama can just read from McCain's position papers.
Coward. Does this mean McCain can't multi-task? Only one issue at a time?

Their campaign is a joke!!! He knows he will fail miserably in a debate against Obama and he might have to answer some tough questions and look foolish when he doublespeaks.
He has truly learned well from the master
dodge and deceive
:grr:

12. The jury is still out on that - he's requesting Obama join him |
|
it makes him willing to reach across aisles... it makes him look like he is concerned about the economy -- in SOME people's eyes. Don't dismiss it so easily...
I personally think he's playing a game.

It's obvious he's playing a game. Just like his choice for VP. It's all a game to him.
He reminds me of a boxer who knows he's going down an he's hanging onto his opponent waiting for the bell to ring.

16. Okay, that in itself looks better on his part |
|
And yes, it's a game. It's like he's going to use Dean Smith's four corner offense - stall, stall, stall until November 4.

13. My first thought is he's trying to look Presidential by cancelling an event to focus |

22. He says "It's time for both parties to come together to solve this problem" |
|
You see what he's trying to do... He's trying to look like he's in charge.

21. He's scared and its showing. Go to DC work on the issue |
|
head to Mississippi on Friday night, debate for an hour or so, and head back to DC. Do they really work on Friday night anyways? Hell as president he will have to be able to multi task, be in more than one place in a day and make it all work. He is scared and its showing. Hell move the debate to DC so he doesn't have to go far. They had better not postpone it. Next it will Palin wanting to postpone her debate for some stupid reason like she is pms.

26. McLiar needs time to consult with his Finance Guru, Phil Gramm. |

Surely, that guy will have great solutions.

25. This serves two purposes. |
|
It keeps him from looking like a senile old man on the one hand. (They must be thinking Kennedy versus Nixon, McLame not TV-genic next to toothy, goodlooking Obama.)
On the other, it implies the Wall Street "crisis" is so acute that the American people shoud really get onboard with Paulson's coup, RIGHT NOW!)
