Re-Post: McCain wants VP debate to happen at another undetermined time
From CNN Correspondent Dana Bash
(CNN) ? McCain supporter Sen. Lindsey Graham tells CNN the McCain campaign is proposing to the Presidential Debate Commission and the Obama camp that if there's no bailout deal by Friday, the first presidential debate should take the place of the VP debate, currently scheduled for next Thursday, October 2 in St. Louis.
In this scenario, the vice presidential debate between Joe Biden and Sarah Palin would be rescheduled for a date yet to be determined, and take place in Oxford, Mississippi, currently slated to be the site of the first presidential faceoff this Friday.
Graham says the McCain camp is well aware of the position of the Obama campaign and the debate commission that the debate should go on as planned ? but both he and another senior McCain adviser insist the Republican nominee will not go to the debate Friday if there's no deal on the bailout.
Re: Re-Post: McCain wants VP debate to happen at another undetermined time
Well, color me surprised. Moving the VP debate back? You don't say...
I am just copying my response from below:
Well that is definitely not necessary---I am sure that if their current location is not available next week, someone else will fall all over themselves to offer their location so this would not be needed. Palin and Biden do need to debate since she has not been on the trail long. No need for a delay.
LOL!! Of course they want to delay the Palin debate. She has more studying to do.
I'm in the minority that thought suggesting postponing the debate on Friday was a clever and strategic move on McCain's part, but if they are seriously proposing to push back Palin's debate, then he's now just looking stupid. I think more and more people are starting to wonder what is going on with her, and if this whole pushing Fri's debate back because of the economy starts to look like they are pushing it back to protect her somehow, then they lose all credibility.
This is going to get interesting.
She'll do fine. All she has to do is memorize 5 standard answers. Repeat. Continue to repeat. How could she possibly get flustered with that strategy?
HA! Jesse Taylor's take on it.

If anyone was surprised that the end result of this maneuvering was going to be the postponement of the vice-presidential debate, I?m sorry that I interrupted your game of Can I Open The Refrigerator Before The Light Turns On? Try it again...you?ll get it this time!
