After a rocky day on Wall Street and in markets around the world, sure looks like we’re going to keep talking about the economy. That’s not good for the McCain campaign according to the McCain campaign. As noted earlier today, the NY Daily News reported:

McCain’s course correction reflects a growing case of nerves within his high command as the electoral map has shifted significantly in Obama’s favor in the past two weeks. “It’s a dangerous road, but we have no choice,” a top McCain strategist told the Daily News. “If we keep talking about the economic crisis, we’re going to lose.”

Just about every news website has some major article about the stock market losses today. So, yeah, we’re going to keep talking about the economic crisis because it’s still a damn crisis, not a political issue to be swept away by negative campaigning.

Someone over at McCain HQ is going to have to write something about the economy on Sarah Palin’s Starbucks mocha cup to get her up to speed on the crisis.

UPDATE: Bonddad has a post at DailyKos titled “Economy In Shambles; Markets Crashing.” Yikes. This really is a crisis and we’ll all be talking about the economy for awhile.
