    Before the conservatives come in and bust a nut over "omg mccain loves america so much" please acknowledge this as a purely political move.
    What a profound way of thinking.

    Us bubba conservatives never imagined such a treacherous motive.

    I agree. The banking and insurance compainies, in bed with democrats, have had the highest profit margins in the Fortune 500, yet the democrats are always attacking the oil companies, that at best, are about 1/3 the way down on the Fotune 500 profit margins.

    Time for a change. Let the friend of democrats fall.
    God reading your posts put me so much on tilt because its such partisan bull separated from reality by the facts. You're quickly approaching Boutons levels of irrelevance on this board because you keep opening your mouth and all that comes out are republican talking points and some that even republican's aren't saying.

    Hey dumbass do your research, Obama initiated talks with McCain on doing this. McCain just ran to the media first
    Who gives a ...there are talks of the bill stalling unless mccain is there. The man rolls up his sleeves and says "I'm going to work" and all the liberals are so cynical.

    You're the dumbass...

    Obama only wanted to discuss a joint statement on the subject. Not suspending the campaign.

    McCain should get credit for being the first candidate this season to use the term "suspend the campaign" in a non-euphemistic way (as in Romney, Edwards, etc. using it to mean "concede").

    Regardless of his motives; props to McCain for doing this.

    Simply because we'll probably get a much better bill out of it.

    Or maybe none at all (although I got my hopes up too high for that, I think)

    this part of his statement is definitely true.

    The banking and insurance compainies......have had the highest profit margins in the Fortune 500,...............that at best, are about 1/3 the way down on the Fotune 500 profit margins..
    the other part, i couldn't say.

    This is fairly interesting to watch. Part of me wants to just get everything over with and let the hit the fan. But I'm also really scared that this would indeed mean a great depression type situation here.
    Bring.

    It.

    On.

    Its painfully obvious how little the media gets the situation. They keep talking about this as if its a loan or a gift of money and about how they should pay it back.

    Earlier this week both candidates said they were confident that the bill would get passed through without them. Now there are reports saying that some Repubs and some Dems won't sign off on it unless McCain does as well. McCain sucked it up and went.

    By the way...I didn't see any reports saying that neither party would sign off unless Obama did. I think it goes to show what other members of the senate think of McCain no matter what party they are from.

    You should have just posted this:

    " o,

    I know jack about DC

    Have a nice day"

    They're voting based on McCain because of the election. Not because of what they think about him.

    @ the thought of the entire senate looking to McCain as some kind of beacon of light.

    I think they know he's been right more than he has been wrong.

    I'm sorry are you implying that most votes in congress revolve over right and wrong?

    There is absolutely no reason either candidate needs to suspend their campaigns and cancel the debate. They can do both, this is a cheap political stunt by McCain to make him look decisive. It shouldn't surprise anyone since his campaign is run by media people.
