>John McCain announced yesterday that he is suspending his campaign to help deal with the financial crisis. He said he would not participate in tomorrow night's scheduled Presidential debate if the Senate has not passed a bill in response to the administration's bailout proposal. Barack Obama said he wants the debate to proceed as scheduled.

>Thoughts?
It's all politics.
McCain has taken a notable hit in the polls in the last 2 weeks and has lost the post-Palin/Convention momentum due to the financial crisis. He needed another big moment to regain ground. Obama has provided it by stumbling through his response to McCain's decision and then reversing his decision about returning to Washington. In the end will it matter? Not likely. This race is down to the debates.
Frankly, I think the debate topic should be changed from foreign policy to finance and go forward.
