Even after Congress has agreed to handle the fallout....McCain has still decided to NOT GO to the debate (his mind may change of course....) I still think this is a punk move. |
No, he said that his position is unchanged, if they can get a bill passed before the debate he will attend. I would bet poll numbers will either remain unchanged or go up. Why? Because the only people you hear outraged about his decision are partisan Democrats. And why are they mad? Because he beat Barack to the punch on trying to seize this issue.
Yes it is a political move, but unless the bailout plan absolutely bombs it was a good move. If they pass a plan and it works, McCain looks good. If they don't pass a plan, blast Obama for not coming to help try to work something out. The only way McCain loses on this is if he helps negotiate a deal that does harm.
