Damned if you do, damned if you donâ€™t.

You got to admit, McCain is going to be criticized whether he shows up or not.

If he doesnâ€™t show up, theyâ€™ll say he is scared to debate Obama.

If he does show up, theyâ€™ll say he is flip flopping.

There is no way he can win that one, so maybe it was a dumb move for him to go to Washington.
