Nobody suspended their campaign. The election went on.

WTF is wrong with McCain? The current financial crisis doesn't rise to the level of a fucking Civil War, for God's sake!

1. He knows he can't compete, so he's taking his ball and going home.
Like the arch opportunist he is, he's using the economic crisis to benefit himself and pretending his cowardice is really concern for the country.

4. He also wanted to cancel the convention
Does this guy even want to run for President? Maybe it's time for Gramps to return to Arizona.
