McCain Cancels on Letterman

Presidential candidate John McCain canceled his appearance last night on the David Letterman Show. McCain’s reason for canceling was that he had suspended his campaign and needed to fly to D.C. immediately to focus on the economy. David Letterman was mad, especially when McCain made an appearance with Katie Couric. 

Letterman took jabs at McCain saying , “John McCain had to cancel an appearance on the show because he is suspending his campaign because the economy is exploding” and, “You know John McCain, the running mate of Sarah Palin?” The Presidential candidates spokeswoman Nicole Wallace, said today on NBC’s “Today Show” that the Republican campaign, “felt this wasn’t a night for comedy” and “We deeply regret offending Mr. Letterman, but our candidate’s priority at this moment is to focus on this crisis.”
