McCain Asks Debates be Postponed


It's pretty clear where this is going.  McCain, famous for showing up and injecting himself into negotiations, is demanding a seat at the bailout table.  It's a clever, calculating move.  Obama must now respond to the McCain initiative sure to be sold as a bi-partisan, presidential gesture.  Campaign?  Debate?  Not when the country faces such a grave economic threat.  Of course, McCain sees an opportunity for political points.  Maybe he can get it called the McCain Rescue Bill.  So what's Obama to do?  Should he show up in Washington and try to get his name on the package?  I don't like this one bit.

UPDATE: Obama, not McCain first proposed a joint initiative via a phone call at 8:30 am today.
