9/25/08- TWD's Agenda For the Day- Scaried, Scaried, Scaried, Scaried, Scaried, Scaried......and Cowardly

There's nothing more you can say about what John McCain did yesterday. But that's not a surprise considering how historically terrible this campaign of his has been.

And no, the morning reaction towards McCain trying to punk out of the debate tomorrow night in Mississippi sees right through his gutless, weak attempt of trying to stop the bleeding him and Palin are undergoing at the moment. (Via Kula2316 at the Kos)

Harold Meyerson, Washington Post:

McCain's ploy was transparent.

Todd Gillman, The Dallas Morning News:

"It is a stunt. It is a ploy. He's not president yet,"

New York Times Editorial:

We don’t know if Mr. McCain or Mr. Obama will do any good back in Washington. But Mr. McCain’s idea of postponing the Friday night debate was another wild gesture from a candidate entirely too prone to them. The nation needs to hear Mr. Obama and Mr. McCain debate this crisis and demonstrate who is ready to lead.

And finally, the "right leaning" Wall Street Journal Editorial:

So count us as mystified by Senator John McCain's decision yesterday to suspend his campaign and call for a postponement in Friday's first Presidential debate so that he and Barack Obama can work out a consensus bill to stabilize the financial system. This is supposed to be evidence of leadership?

No Wall Street Journal, it isn't the evidence of leadership. It is the evidence of trepidation.

The Schedule will be posted in the comments. And here's an article in today's post to look at on "The Read":
