Is it not plain that McCain is shit-scared of facing Obama? In a debate McCain will show his guts, literally, after Obama eviscerates him.
If he thinks that it's necessary to delay the debates because of more pressing issues (you can't do both??) then he is deluding only himself, although I suspect his decision had less to do with him than his GOP manipulators and dirty tricksters.
By suspending the campaign out of shear cowardice McCain has essentially surrendered. McCain, POW.
And as Palin becomes increasingly toxic, McCain can't rely on reflected "glory" and is left with nothing but his own sordid and corrupt past, such as his role in the S&L scandals, and his constant lies. This is the GOP's ultimate tactic. Tell lies and more lies and then keep lying.
