rachelmanija Sep. 24th, 2008 04:50 pm)McCain is refusing to debate Obama as scheduled unless a bailout deal is reached by Friday.
My reaction: ...what? WHAT?! Boggle boggle boggle... WHAT?!
More considered reaction: WHAT?!!!!???!!!
Very considered reaction: Either political grandstanding in a poorly thought-out manner, or McCain REALLY doesn't want to debate Obama, or he hopes that by postponing the Pesidential debate he can entirely evade the VP debate because he REALLY REALLY doesn't want America to see Palin speaking live and unscripted.
My guess is political grandstanding. Possibly with a side of wishing to avoid his or her debate.
The debate is an hour and a half (okay, plus lots of prep time.) There is no reason why they can't help with the budget crisis and debate. We held presidential debates in 1944, for God's sake.
Also: oh noes! My debate party!!!
