The dabates and McCain
The first debate was supposed to be "McCain's debate" because the topic was foreign policy. Yet McCain lost.

The second debate was supposed to also be "McCain's debate" because McCain was said to be good in a town hall format. Yet McCain lost.

So, who else thinks McCain might be looking for a reason to call off tonight's debate?

1. McCain is trailing badly.
He has more to gain than to lose by showing up tonight.

3. Agreed...he has nothing to lose and will likely just throw it out there.

2. And its funny how the MSM ...
called it a win for McCain/Palin (or at least a tie) for all the debates and then minutes later when they got their poll numbers from actual undecideds it clearly showed a big win for Obama and Biden and it was only then that they started shifting gears and calling it a win for our side. So i expect the same to happen tonight...let's just hope the undecideds see Obama winning agian :)
