"Frank Fahrenkopf, co-chairman of the Commission on Presidential Debates, tells Tam Cam at the Memphis Airport that he will know by noon if the first presidential debate will take place. If McCain does not come by law there will be no debate because it is an 'illegal contribution.' When asked what the absolutely drop dead time is he replied, 'the final sweep by 5pm.'" www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/26/first-obama-mccain-presid_n_129569.html

So basically, it would be a $5m illegal contribution TO OBAMA. So if McCain continues with this bullshit bluff, it will have to be cancelled.

It's all so unfair.

EDIT: THE DEBATE IS ON!!!
