McCain wants the first debate to be held on the day Palin and Biden were supposed to debate. Doing this will effectively give Palin more time to study foreign policy after her visit to the U.N.

Btw, they just reported this on CNN.

OMG. The wheels are coming off. I feel sorta embarrassed for McCain. I thought this would at least be a good fight.

You know, any ethics, honor, or courage that he once had has clearly been lost. This actually truly makes me sad.

I have a feeling this was done to give Palin time. It's ironic they purposed the Presidential Debate to be held on Oct. 2 and schedule the VP debate at a later time!

Which means that Barack Obama will have all the networks to himself for 90 minutes-for free?

It'll be the Democratic National Convention all over again.

Thanks Johnny.

This is turning into a circus, or is it one already?

Don't get your shorts all out of sort just yet. Bush and Paulson reached an agreement and the debates will go on as planned.

Spin away Libs, spin away.

No amount of cramming for a debate with Biden on foreign affairs will help Palin. If she doesn't know anything about it now, she still won't know later. Memorization doesn't mean understanding.
