It seems odd that a politician who is running neck and neck in the polls would bow out of a network TV appearance - for any reason! That's what John McCain did on Wednesday. He was to visit David Letterman. He said he was halting his campaign activities to deal with the nation's financial crisis. On the air Wednesday night, Letterman assailed McCain's rationale and, with prickly humor, questioned whether the nominee — now trailing in some polls — was in trouble. "This doesn't smell right," Letterman said. "This is not the way a tested hero behaves. Somebody's putting something in his Metamucil."
I hate when somebody screws with my metamucil.
Was Letterman upset with the last minute cancellation? You tell me - He replaced McCain with MSNBC's Keith Olbermann
