The McCain camp has called for a timout in all campaigning, stating its important for both candidates to meet with party leadership in Washington to grind out a viable solution to the ongoing financial crisis.

Are they serious?

I mean we are talking about a guy who just weeks ago asserted the fundamentals of our economy are strong. What a difference a few polls make huh?

One, he is panicked and is trying to cover for his own economic gaffes. And two, his call for a timout is merely injecting yet more politics into the whole mess. Either way, I have faith the American people will see through this latest stunt for what it really is-- a joke.
