So, McCain has "suspended" is Presidential campaign.
While some that I have been speaking with are calling this a "bold move" and that America demands "action", it should be pointed out that John McCain has missed around 80% of the votes in the Senate since the 4th quarter of 2007.

While some will surely fall back on the line of "he's got a campaign to run", this doesn't excuse them from doing the job they were elected to do.
To provide proper context to this point, Obama's record clearly shows his absence record. However, even during the campaign, Obama has made time to "return to work". Also, his absences are decreasing while McCain's have skyrocketed since March.
