The Tale of Sen. McCain

Brave Sir Robin ran away,
Bravely ran away, away.

When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled.

Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about

And gallantly, he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet,

He beat a very brave retreat,

Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin.


- Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)

Since brave Sen. McCain is ducking the debates and running away from the public (something Eric Rauchway points out was not done by Lincoln in 1864, Hoover or FDR in 1932, FDR or Willkie in 1940, or FDR or Dewey in 1944), why not shout after him a good question that no one is asking:

"Senator McCain, what does your buddy Phil Gramm have to say about all your Wall Street pals that are currently whining so loudly?"
