Is this "Crisis" the October Suprise we have all been waiting for??
A manufactuversy that has obviously been discussed in the White House for weeks and pimped by the the Repubs so McCain can put "Country First", suspend his campaign and return to washington...to meet the Pres at the White House (reported by MSNBC) and dump the "Solution" to the problem, forstalling a disaster they are referring to as a financial 9/11???

Remember that mcCain put out the first "Presidental" press release during the Georgia crisis, and the White house said NOTHING???

This all stinks to high heaven.

It will make them fall.

9. This little plan tanked as badly as everything else.
So he's left playing dance as fast as your can again. Hence the Ayers ads popping up.

4. I doubt it. Bad economies never help an incumbent party.

Why highlight it by making it even worse?

6. If it ain't as bad as they claim (terra terra terra) and McCain can rush
back to the White house and Congress to save the day, or try to act presidental/prezimental

5. We've had more October's this year than in a decade.
I thought the Georgia crisis was meant for October but they pulled it early because of Obama's trip to Germany.

12. I think they were to sit on this mess until after
the election but the financial markets imploded early and forced them to roll it out early. I can't see where this could help them.
