ksmithWatching Letterman. McCain blew him off this evening. OMG, is he pissed.
"Are we suspending it (the campaign) because of the economy, or because the poll numbers are sliding?"
In other news,
About why Secretary Paulson asked for seven hundred billion dollars:
"It's not based on any particular data point," a Treasury spokeswoman told Forbes.com Tuesday. "We just wanted to choose a really large number."
With that, satire writers sadly capped their pens and added monster.com to their bookmark bar.

Date: 2008-09-25 09:30 pm (UTC)Incidentally, according to the latest poll numbers here, McCain is getting hammered by 13 points. I think the economic issue is going to be his undoing (and well, Palin). Someone on NPR this morning said something rather smart: that he's trying all these refocusing measures because he doesn't want the economic issue to linger into October where it will continue to drag him down.
I just don't think $700 billion in free money is going to help quickly enough to make that a reality for him.
