Are you really sure suspend plays well?

I have got to wonder. Is it really good for John McCain to have the average American keep seeing this headline "McCain Suspends Campaign"? I mean they solved this 'financial crisis' without even meeting with you. I think you might want to unsuspend before everyone thinks you've given up on the idea of running.

OH! That's right, your campaign's version of suspend and the rest of the universe's version are different. Witness Nancy Pfotenhauer's appearance on FOX this morning (keep in mind, the McCain campaign is 'suspended' when she does this):



Wow. I guess you could make the argument that you weren't speaking to a legitimate news organization. Otherwise, that doesn't jibe with the version of suspend most of us have.

Boy, have you got problems John. First you cancelled on Letterman. Letterman, in what can only be charitably be described as an unfortunate selection for you, went and got Keith Olbermann to replace you. Then you, instead of rushing back to Washington, like you told David Letterman you had to do, go do a sit down with Katie Couric. Did it not occur to you that both Katie and Dave are on the same network? Did it not occur to you he might find out? Did it not occur to you how bad this could look if he found out while he was taping and had Olbermann sitting there? Let's watch the results, shall we:



I am not sure, but I am starting to think that this three day period will be remembered for decades as "Where McCain lost the election." Kinda your "Kitty Dukakis" moment. Your "Poland isn't in the Soviet Bloc" moment. Your...well, you get the idea.

There's more, but I'll save some for later. God, you need a good debate. Oh, that is if you attend.

Comments welcome,

It's got electoral votes. It's what politicians crave.
