It's silly grandstanding. McCain wants to look serious, as if he is critical to the solution - when in reality he is one of 100 senators, and I don't think he even is on the relevant committees (I might be wrong about this; if I am, someone please let me know). He also might just be using it to tweak Obama. But substantively it's pure bullshit, left out in the field to attract flies and decompose.
What I think is really going on is that he wants to move all the debates down a few days and this is his tool to do it. Why does he want to move all the debates down? Simple - Sarah Palin needs more time to come up to speed and practice for her debate. Or is this too cynical?
