How To: Deal with an ‘economic crisis’

Yesterday, Republican presidential nominee John McCain announced he was suspending his campaign until the economic problems the U.S. now faces are dealt with. This includes his cancellation of an appearance on “The Late Show with David Letterman” and possibly even not showing up to tomorrow night’s presidential debate.
