So, yesterday, McCain announces he is going to "suspend his campaign" to concentrate on an economic proposal he hadn't even read as of two days ago...even though two days before that, he had said he would support it, only to say the following day that he had some reservations about it. (Sit back, shake out the cobwebs, okay, back to it.)
Now, according to McCain and his people, "suspending" a campaign means no rallies, no appearances, and no ads. Here's a quote from McCain campaign chief Steve Schmidt:
“We're going to take the ads down. They won't be traveling. There won’t be rallies."
Really? No ads, huh? Because I could've sworn when I woke up this morning, what did I see? Yep, an advertisement from the McCain campaign attacking Obama!
Does this guy tell the truth about anything?
It might seem, at first glance, like I'm blowing this out of proportion. The guy's campaign is a big operation, right? Apparently, it's so big, he didn't even know that (whoops!) his campaign manager is still on the payroll at his former lobbying firm. But if he can't run a campaign staff and make good on promises that he offers up of his own volition, what kind of confidence can voters have that he'll keep the promises required by the job he seeks?
