Let's see.
McCain decides the government can't fashion a rescue plan without him, so he "suspends" his campaign (though his ads continue to run, his surrogates continue to attack Obama) lies to David Letterman about why he can't be on his show, telling him he's dashing to the airport when in fact he's sitting with Katie Couric and getting makeup applied, finally shows up in DC after an initial agreement is set; pulls all the players to a photo op at the White House where the only thing of slight substance he does is mention a counter proposal by Conservative Republicans that he can't defend when challenged by the Secretary of the Treasury. Meanwhile the person he picked to be a "feeble heartbeat" away from the presidency can't respond to softball questions on McCain's record while making an argument that she's got foreign policy experience because Putin flew through her state's airspace.
And now, after all that, whatever deal had been struck is unraveled. Heckuva job, Johnnie.
McCain says he's suspended his campaign but the only thing being suspended is a sense of disbelief.
Is this really a serious person capable of leading us through the century's biggest fiscal crisis and the "global war on terror?"
Or did all those years of appearing on Saturday Night Live go to McCain's head and he's now perpetrating the biggest parody in history on the country?
I'm not laughing.
