Let's call McCain's bluff. Let's see if he's prepared to spend an hour on national TV discussing this. Tonight.


If McCain isn't prepared to talk about it *tonight* then he's not prepared for the presidency.

1. Jim Leher has already told both campaigns that questions about the economy will

3. But McCain could (and probably will) try to spin a no-show as saying he's staying in

Washington in order to "save the day" again... this way, any option for him to try to spin a no-show to his advantage will be neatly pre-empted.
