No Time For A Time Out
September 24, 2008
"Forget it. John McCain's transparent ploy to stall the rising Obama campaign should be firmly rejected. Instead of returning to Washington, Obama should remain on the hustings and emphasize that he's not going to be party to a back room deal to bail out Wall Street bankers. Sure, some agreement will and should be reached to save everyone else from the machinations of Wall Street's predators who ended up devouring themselves. But Obama can press his case more effectively outside of Washington rather than inside it.
As is his wont, McCain is grandstanding. Neither he nor Obama are the prime movers in the Senate on the issue of a bailout. Their job is to fight for the presidency, and it's one that Obama is winning right now. For Obama there is no moment like the present to press his case on the economy. In short, it's no time for a time out."

Why does McCain think he can fool the American Public into thinking he is some sort of political martyr?
