Agree to the suspension, but suggest the debate go ahead with the economy as the main issue.
That's what the Obama camp should do.
Talk versus action, my friends. Talk versus action.
The American people deserve to hear a debate about the economy and this bailout. Both senators can spare a couple of hours for that. Move it to DC if need be.
This is an interesting situation. Obama can't agree to the delay because (a) it benefits McCain and (b) it'd be portrayed as a McCain victory, even though McCain campaign would never claim it.
But Obama can't show up to an empty podium in Mississippi, he'd look silly. Similarly McCain can't just not show up to a scheduled debate, he'd look silly.
A suspension and a change of debate topic would be the best compromise.
