McCain calls on Obama to suspend campaign
Re: McCain calls on Obama to suspend campaign
I guess I don't see McCain's slanderous campaign ads as reflective of a strong character. Maybe I'm misreading the situation, but I've been thinking Obama was trying to distance himself from the sleazy type of campaign McCain seems to be so comfortable with.

Re: McCain calls on Obama to suspend campaign
Is anyone seriously going to be fooled into seeing this as anything other than what it really is?

Re: McCain calls on Obama to suspend campaign
There are still people in the U.S. who ardently believe that Iraq had something to do with 9/11. Does that give you any idea how easily some of the people here will be fooled by this overly transparent ploy?Rochey wrote:Is anyone seriously going to be fooled into seeing this as anything other than what it really is?

There are people who think Obama and Sadam are related.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Re: McCain calls on Obama to suspend campaign
If a crisis looms during an election campaign, I would think that would be the perfect time for the candidates to step up and tell the public how they would deal with it if elected.
The idea that they should suspend the campaign is absurd. What does McCain think they should do instead, exactly? Bush is the President, it's his job to deal with it (stop laughing!), not theirs.

Re: McCain calls on Obama to suspend campaign
It's all about showing people who the more natural leader is. It really helps McCain that his party holds the Executive Office. McCain can be intimately involved with the President in coming up with a solution. From there the populace will see that only one man running for President had the power to control the Feds.GrahamKennedy wrote:If a crisis looms during an election campaign, I would think that would be the perfect time for the candidates to step up and tell the public how they would deal with it if elected.

Re: McCain calls on Obama to suspend campaign
Well, Obama has already said that, no, there's an election coming up, and he's not suspending it. However, he and McCain have been sitting down to have round-table talks with the administration over possible solutions. Which possible solutions are now being bogged down, BTW, but the extreme right of the House of Representatives.GrahamKennedy wrote:If a crisis looms during an election campaign, I would think that would be the perfect time for the candidates to step up and tell the public how they would deal with it if elected.
