McCain's poll members are tanking. What's left for McCain? Posturing and tricks. Ducking the debate is one such trick.
So... McCain can kill two birds with one stone by ducking the debate: get out of debating Obama for a few days, and try to figure out what his position is on the economy that he helped destroy. He can also try and briefly appear "presidential" as McCain hustles back to Washington to help "fix" the economy undermined by him and the Republicans.
McCain postponing the debate is not a surprise nor is it statesmanship "for the good of the country." It's the next act of a lying bully trying to figure out what his next lie is, as the truth starts to catch up.
McCain just blinked. He is running out of lies, and knows it... my friends.
