Suspend the Campaign?

I’ve just read news that Sen. McCain is requesting to suspend the campaign to attend to te financial crisis that the nation is facing.

While it may be  a smart move on McCain’s part, I also think this campaign is so important right now – maybe more important than ever – I almost do not want to see it suspended. The debate that will (might) occur Friday could help determine who leads our country out of this mess or who leads the country into more of the same. I think the American people need to see those differences highlighted, especially when the economy is on everyone’s mind.

I’m interested to see what will happen. Does anyone out there have an opinion as to whether it should or should not be suspended?
