Now McCain Campaign Says He Will Be Speaking About The Economy -- Tomorrow

By Greg Sargent and Eric Kleefeld - October 13, 2008, 4:51PM
Despite what a top surrogate said over the weekend, we learned this morning that in fact John McCain wasn't planning to unveil any economic proposals today.

Now it turns out the whole plan all along was for McCain to address the economy. Tomorrow, that is.

That's what the McCain campaign just announced on a conference call with reporters moments ago, a few hours -- coincidentally, we're sure -- after Obama made headlines with proposals of his own.

1. Free beer, tomorrow.

Sign in bar.

2. He Needs Time To Copy Obama's Work

[gravity]

3. Exactly

4. Exactly #2. Very transparent. nt

5. +3. He always waits for Obama to figure out what he's going to do next. Loser. n/t

[Schulzz]

7. And the MSM headlines will once again say "McCain, Obama propose...."

:boring:

[Democat]

6. All of the stations and papers that ignored Obama will cover McCain!

Count on it!

If McCain gave an economic speech on the same day the market went up 900 points, that would be the headline the next day in every paper.

How many papers will talk about Obama rallying the markets tomorrow?

8. A day late and a dollar short as usual.

[Higher Standard]

9. Par for the course for the Straight Talk Express

Clearly, the express is taking a circuitous route, because McCain is constantly showing up late.

10. More of the same from the Strait Jacket Express.

McCain keeps making the same mistake, over and over. He thinks by declaring HE is the person to lead in times of crisis, he IS the person to lead and voters will agree.

If that would work with middle voters, he would already have them. He has not made the sale, and no amount of declative sentences in his speeches will change that. People do not trust his judgment or his ability to perform as promised, because he's had one bad idea after another.
