Ok, good. So why doesn't Obama leave whatever hole he's in practicing his big boy answers for the show on Friday, GO to washington, and then come back "for a couple hours" on Friday for the debate?
He would NEVER do it, BECAUSE HE CAN'T DO MORE THAN ONE THING AT ONCE.

This financial meltdown is the biggest, most serious issue facing America but Obama won't go to Washington as the Senator he is to vote. Proves his ambition is more important than the country and what he was elected to do. This is what I expected all along. Why else with someone arrive at the Senate and then almost immediately begin running for President?
Have you checked McCain's voting record? Half the time, he doesn't show up to vote on anything. He's too busy hanging out with celebrity friends. You do know that McCain is known as one of the biggest party boys in D.C.?

Is it true that McCain hasn't been present for a senate vote for over a year?

Really? Obama has no problem going to DC, he's just not canceling the debate. You see - he can handle multi-tasking.
Obama "multi-tasking?" Hahahahahahaha. Yep, I can just picture that one. Trying to keep Rev. Wright's mouth shut, locking his wife in the house so she doesn't say anything angry/irritating, keeping his VP on message so he doesn't criticize their own campaign, calling all of his Celeb friends to tell them not to release expletive-laden statements, thinking up delay tactics so he doesn't have to comment on pressing issues until everyone else has spoken and he can steal ideas and phrasing from them. Oh, and trying to keep the Clintons publicly supporting him because it will be all their fault if he loses.
No wonder he doesn't have time to go to Washington!
Oh, and before slamming McCain's attendance, do check on Obama's.
Right now, Obama's "job" is Democratic nominee for president, and with an election near, I'd say that he is winning to the dismay of you Conservatives. This must be why Conservatives take the ridiculous positions they do.
Recap:
1) McCain didn't do his "job" the last 8 years in the Senate, supporting the most atrocious policies in history under the village idiot. The obsession with the failed war and the neglect of the domestic agenda led to this mess.
2) Obama and McCain are running for the next president. Obama is winning and widening his lead. McCain is floundering and looking for an escape hatch. He can't take the heat, so he's abandoning his "job" as a presidential candidate to hide in the Senate to desperately try to associate himself with something positive. Won't work though because he's joined at the hip with the village idiot.
3) McCain can do nothing in Washington but "look" like he's in command and work overtime to have something good to say in the debate that is somewhat favorable. All he has now is that he said the economy was "sound." WRONG. He's been the deregulation guy. WRONG. He and Bush have an economic philosophy that led to this mess. THEY ARE WRONG. Postering in Washington and then trying to claim credit for anything perceived as good is nothing but smoke and mirrors. McCain not right for this country. Plain and simple.
4) '04, Neocons/Republicans/Conservatives told us Bush needed 4 more years to "finish the job." WRONG. Liars. Lying to the American people this year too by propping up Mummy McCain as a viable candidate for the office. No.
5) Red States, wrong. Neocons, wrong. Republicans, wrong. Bush, wrong. Cheney, wrong. War, wrong,....get it? McCain, wrong.
6) Obama is leading in the polls and widening his lead. McCain is in a panic. Can't find a strategy to beat Obama. So, first he tried criticism. Failed. Then Palin. Failed. Then more criticism with bigger lies. Failed. Now the cop-out in order to appear in command. McCain is pathetic.
7) His supporters are just as laughable.
McCain is a loser. This is Obama's year and he's our next president.
