I just heard on Fox that Obama still wants to do the debate and that he just wants to issue both sort of joint statement. He doesn't think they need to go to Washington to help out the nation. He wants to keep on campaigning.

If he is up in the polls as some have said, he sure won't be now. And if the polls are all wrong, which many have said is the case, he just dug a deeper hole to get himself out of.

Either way, McCain just rolled the dice and came up with another brilliant move. Hopefully people will finally wake up and see that McCain is an actual leader and that Obama is just playing politics.

Hey, All — not only did McCain make a brilliant move, but one of these hours some brainiac in the MSM is going to have to say “Hey, wait a minute, BIDEN is also a US Senator, why isn’t HE there in DC trying to work out a solution to this huge problem” (I don’t know, maybe someone is already saying that, I’ve barely been online today)..... then Governor Palin will be the only one “allowed” to campaign right now..... :^)

But then the MSM and Demagogues will get so upset over that, and she will also probably need to “suspend” active campaigning to keep the MSM from melting down.... otherwise they’ll claim it’s all just a ploy by McCain to take all but our Sarah off the campaign trail!!

It is a risky move, but I do actually think McCain is doing this for the good of the country. Uhbamuh accepting his "invitation" is full of political peril. What will become very obvious if he decides to go back to DC is that he really does not stir the drink when it comes to actually getting things done. Other congressmen will take the lead in both houses, whether it be Bela Pelosi or the Hildebeast. He runs the risk of looking like a fifth wheel, even though he will try to portray himself as the leader of his party in this situation.

Could be brilliant. Could be one of the great electoral mistakes of all time. I truly do not know which, but I do believe this shows McCain to be serious when it comes to Country First. Even in the face of some polling that has show an Uhbamuh surge, I have remained fully confident this election is McCain's. He either has clinched the presidency or snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

My take:

Obama calls McCain and proposes joint statement, McCain says fine.

McCain braintrust sees that Obama has tipped his hand and committed to nothing more than a brief joint statement.

McCain then doubles down and announces campaign suspension to go to DC and deal with this in the Senate.

Obama has no good option now.

Obama is only up in propagandized polls.

Either way, McCain just rolled the dice and came up with another brilliant move.

And the McCain threw the dice loaded with 6's Heehee.
