CNN Breaking News: “John McCain suspends campaigning to work on economy, requests postponing Friday debate; asks Obama do the same.”
This is either going to be a brilliant move to back Obama into a corner and show that he follows where McCain leads, or it’s going to backfire big time.
If I were Obama, I’d say, “I’ve been working on the economy by trying to get the idiots that messed it up (like you and your cronies) out of here. And guess what? A President needs to be able to multi-task! So, bite me, Johnny boy!”
OK, so maybe he’ll say it nicer. Hopefully, he won’t just slough off to Washington and kow-tow to the demands of McCain HQ.
UPDATE: Apparently, either Obama reads my blog, or great minds think alike…
“Presidents are going to have to deal with more than one thing at a time,” the Democratic candidate said. “It’s not necessary for us to think that we can only do one thing and suspend everything else.”
I hope he says it just like you did.
Ah yeah…I called him on my speed dial “O” and told him what you suggested for his response and he was all…that Lester…so smart! He wants to know if you are available for to sit as Secretary of State?
