By now everyone has heard that the economy is f*cked. I pretty much knew it was fu*cked a long time ago. But that's prolly only because I live in the hood. If you don't live in the hood you don't see things like kids begging for change to get chips at the corner store. And I am not talking about smokers and whinos. I am talking about kids like Dookie from the Wire.

I guess John McCain must have seen one of those juvenile beggers, because yesterday he finally admitted that the economy is f*cked. He called for Obama to take a time out from campaigning so that they can focus on the economy. He even wants to cancel the debate that is scheduled for tomorrow. Crazy!

Of course, McCain only canceled his campaign after Obama asked the Republican candidate to release a joint statement about Bush's bail out plan. I'm betting that Obama prolly thought the bipartisan move would help the country get focused, instead it convinced McCain that he needed a time out. No disrespect intended, but McCain is pretty old, he prolly figured that Obama would cut him some slack.

We'll see what happens next, but apparently Obama isn't going to cancel his campaign.
