On CNN - Dem Senate Majority leader asked that McCain let them know what he would do.
Obama response on CNN - Debate is more important than ever. President should be able to do more than one thing at a time.

you're late.
Republican pundit: This is a great move by a great leader. Obama should be ashamed for not suspending his campaign.
Democratic pundit: This is just a political ploy by McCain and he should be ashamed. Obama made a brilliant move here to call McCain on this and his supposed lack of multi-tasking.
McCain is screwed on this one. If he supports it he's not a reformer. If he shoots it down and anything s up it's on him...
Was outside smoking...paused the tv.
John needs to call Sarah in quick!!!
yeaaaaa

he readily admits not knowing economics. how could it all land on either of them fairly?
Realist: These people should do what they are paid for during a crisis. The debate can be rescheduled.
thank you for smoking. do you like alcohol?
Damn, Tim Russert would love this stuff!!!!!
how does this improve mccains multi-tasking skills?
They should show they can deal with a crisis on one hand and debate with the other.
"McCain is trying to stall"
Hasn't Obama been hiding from McTownhall for the last 3 months?
Kinda sounds more like a republican pundit to me.
Yeah...because I remember Herbert Hoover did exactly that in 1929.
Obama was smart not to take McCain up on his townhall meetings. That would have just knocked him off his schedule and eaten up his time to campaign in other states.
deflection to the rescue!!!!
That was then, this is NOW!!!
Personally, since we're talking about a trillion $'s here, I'd rather them focus on that and get back to the campaign afterwards.
It's a very big deal. If this was last year and it was just the small fries, then it wouldn't make sense to interrupt the campaign season, but this is definitely a different beast.
Besides, frankly, I don't care the hidden reason or anything. McCain, Obama, and Biden are all STILL being paid to participate and vote in Senate proceedings. I expect them to be there, listening to the debate, and voting on important legislation whether it's campaign season or not. Yes, it's an idealistic expectation, but I do believe it's what we deserve.
FDR also had a foreign policy debate on dec. 7 1941.
JFK held a debate when the russians put nukes in cuba
send his economic advisers, john would just be in the way.
oooh nooooo!!!!!!! imminent war on friday!!!!!!
