He should suspend his campaign. His duty as a senator is more important right now.
I couldn't disagree more. McCain and Obama have an opportunity hear to show real presidential leadership *before* an election. They should both be campaigning like hell on the economic crisis, lead the votes on the issue in Congress, and let Americans judge who's right.
McCain looks like he's hiding something here. It seems like a risky stunt.

Mr Magoo is afraid that we might actually talk about the "issues" something he is not very good at.
There is no such thing as a time-out in life.
It's the Economy Stupid. So let's talk about it!
No Bailout for the banks!
If we are going to "throw" hundreds of billions of OUR money at this throw some my way please!
Here is an idea....
You know, the "small" bailout now PAST, not the big one(s) coming up.
Instead, I'm in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to America in
a We Deserve It Dividend.
To make the math simple, let's assume there are 200,000,000
bonafide U.S. Citizens 18+.
Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman
and child. So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up..
So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billon that equals $425,000.00.
My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a
We Deserve It Dividend.
Of course, it would NOT be tax free.
So let's assume a tax rate of 30%.
Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes.
That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.
But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket.
A husband and wife have $595,000.00.
pass it around!
