Here are the main discussion points framing the conversations with his closest, long-time supporters, including his wife, but not current campaign staff.
First is the argument that taking this move would boldly prove McCain's goal of always putting the nation first. This is the way for him to achieve a lasting legacy as a true American patriot. Why keep fighting and giving the media the horse race story when shortly it will be crystal clear to everyone that Barack Obama has taken an irreversible advantage and will surely win the necessary Electoral College votes?
Second, the money advantage of Obama simply puts him at an unbeatable advantage, and making his campaign go very, very negative against Obama personally is really making his stomach turn nasty. He admits he and his advisors have no solid new things to say about the economy meltdown that can advance his campaign.
Third, McCain has confided that his health is not the best and that he is facing increasing pressure to reveal his entire health history records to the media, which he has steadfastly refused to do. Once the truth is know that he faces much higher risks than he had previously admitted his selection of Sarah Palin as his running mate, that he first rationalized, takes on new and disastrous qualities. He also feels physically and mentally exhausted from campaigning and knows that it has adversely impacted his day-to-day tactical decisions for the campaign.
Fourth, McCain feels strong anger towards the Republican Party that he believes has let him and the nation down. In particular, he is angry at Republican members of Congress that he feels screwed up his attempt to look like a hero in the recent initial decision on the $700 billion rescue legislation. He feels he was forced to support the final bill even though it contained pork spending that he has consistently wailed against, making him look like a hypocrite.
Fifth, this is the ultimate and final way for him to show the nation what a true maverick he really is and that his talk of bipartisanship has been totally honest. He will tell the nation that he stands ready to assist President Barack Obama in any way either as a part of his administration or as a senator. He would enjoy being Secretary of Defense.
You ask how I know about these secret discussions. They came to me in what I can only interpret to be divine intervention one day as I was taking my daily walk. At first I thought maybe it was a "what if" stream of consciousness. But then I realized I had somehow accessed the real thing in some inexplicable telepathic way. And I surely had a responsibility to share all this with you.

regulations, the productive workers must divide the fruits of their labor with those who are lazy and idle.'
And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen, who smiled and clucked, 'I am grateful, for now I truly understand.'
But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her. She never again baked bread because she joined the 'party' and got her bread free. And all the Democrats smiled. 'Fairness' had been established.
Individual initiative had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one cared...so long as there was free bread that 'the rich' were paying for.
EPILOGUE
Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs.
Hillary got $8 million for hers.
That's $20 million for the memories from two people, who for eight years, repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn't remember anything.
IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT?
'If I'm to be the only helper, that's discrimination,' said the goose.
'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen.
She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her neighbors to see. They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share. But the little red hen said, 'No, I shall eat all five loaves.'
'Excess profits!' cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi)
'Capitalist leech!' screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer)
'I demand equal rights!' yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson)
The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy)
And they all painted 'Unfair!' picket signs and marched around and around the little red hen, shouting obscenities.
Then the farmer (Obama) came. He said to the little red hen,
'You must not be so greedy.'
'But I earned the bread,' said the little red hen.
'Exactly,' said Barack the farmer. 'That is what makes our free enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can earn as much as he wants. But under our modern government regulati
The Little Red Hen called all of her Democrat neighbors together and said, 'If we plant this wheat, we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?'
'Not I,' said the cow.
'Not I,' said the duck.
'Not I,' said the pig.
'Not I,' said the goose.
'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen, and so she did. The wheat grew very tall and ripened into golden grain.
'Who will help me reap my wheat?' asked the little red hen.
'Not I,' said the duck..
'Out of my classification,' said the pig.
'I'd lose my seniority,' said the cow.
'I'd lose my unemployment compensation,' said the goose.
'Then I will do it by myself,' s aid the little red hen, and so she did.
At last it came time to bake the bread.
'Who will help me bake the bread?' asked the little red hen.
'That would be overtime for me,' said the cow.
'I'd lose my welfare benefits,' said the duck.
'I'm a dropout and never learned how,' said the pig.
'If I'm to be the only he
You are sick. This is far from over. When was the last time Obama did cocaine? Supposedly it was a recent as 2003. Who was his dealer? Was Obama a dealer? Birds of a feather flock together. William Ayers, Reverend Wright, etc., etc. This guy is not who the liberal media hopes he is.
mccain still has the GOP voter eletronic fraud machines... he can steal election like bush 2 times.. god help america if palin gets in WH.
Excellent, especially the change in the photo. It resembles my own exploded head. Had to get a haircut today, because my hair was on fire.
We'll never get that Article 5 now will we.
Sigh, great idea, to late now.
Sill following your career.
Faith Carr, your old gaaaaaaaal in Gainesville
Sorry - I blew the character count.
Anyway, it is the Season of the Witch. With Rove and Cheney still very much evident in the shadows, anything is possible. McCain could withdraw. But Palin would secede nothing.
Considering everything that's going on and what's at stake, the next three and a half weeks should be very exciting.
Excellent, We can only hope.
I wouldn't count on this occurring.
