I think McCain knows how important it is going to be in the next four years and he feels more comfortable being in Washington. Obama's now the great multi-tasker and he's ok fund raising and working on the bill.

Wow, this is the most rational post I think you've ever made

I don't think McCain is personally using this stunt for campaign gain, I think he does think he's doing the right thing.

That being said, I think his advisors are out to milk it for all it's worth. Given what they're making him say to please the base I wouldn't put anything past them.

Thanks Spence, I live for your approval

I think if they can some how get Wall Street to pay for this, that would be very agreeable to the Dems. It's an idea I had not heard about from anyone until yesterday. If that is the way it goes down, Obama is screwed and McCain will go to the debate as the one who got it done. And not on the taxpayers dime.
