McCain's "suspension of his campaign" was a huge mistake. It makes it appear that he is afraid to debate Obama. A different view, equally bad, is heard in the rumors now spreading that this is an effort to move the debate to the slot reserved for the VP debate and cancel the VP debate altogether (because Palin will look so bad).
His idea that he can't debate because he has to think about the economy also suggests that that he can't fart and chew gum at the same time.
It is obvious that the White House got ticked off that McCain was acting as if He had to swoop down on DC like Superman and save the economy: hence this sudden meeting with Bush, a move to reaffirm who the President of this country actually is by changing McCain's trip to DC from the arrival of the Savior into a mere response to a call from the President.
McCain managed to tick off pretty much everyone with this "suspend the campaign" gambit, including David Letterman, and I think he is going to seriously regret suggesting it in the first place.
