Not to derail here, but would it be just as "political" if it was Obama doing it?

Funny, just last Monday he claimed "The fundamentals of the economy are sound" Now, the situation is so severe that he is temporarily suspending his campaign to deal with it.
IMO - this is a Rovian stunt, just like picking Palin. Funny how he pulled both rabbits out of the hat when his polls started dropping like a rock.
Somehow, I have a feeling that the Obama campaign will try and take credit for McCain's idea.
The Obama campaign said Obama had called McCain around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday to propose that they issue a joint statement in support of a package to help fix the economy as soon as possible.

It was just confirmed that Obama contacted McCain first this morning. So it looks like McCain is taking credit for Obama's idea.
And taking into consideration the conspiracy here, maybe McCain knows that perhaps Bush will stay in power due to "the financial crisis" and See no reason why to do any more campaign.
