Debating the Debate and Other Issues

It certainly has been an interesting week, of course, the Washington Post has featured many different articles as well as not mentioned many things that I'm certain other media outlets have. However, no one can claim that it wasn't an interesting week in the news and in the political scene, with only a few weeks left to go before the ultimate Presidential choice. The main issue that I have scene day after day in the Post has been the debate: Will it happen? Why does McCain want to postpone it? Who won? The first question was the big one. With McCain taking a hiatus from his campaign until some kind of decision was reached on the Wall Street Bail out. Also, though, an article that took place on the main page of the Post for a while analyzed Gov. Palin's interview with Katie Couric in which it analyzed her answers quite harshly and questioned her experience in order to be the Vice Presidential running mate of McCain. The Washington Post covered this week in an array of topics and here are the top five for this week.

1. McCain's Campaign Hiatus
2. Cancellation/Postponement of the Debate
3. Obama and McCain's "Joint" Statement
4. Palin's CBS Interview
5. Debate Focus on Economy May Hurt McCain
