Slog - Comments on Losing Letterman http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/losing_letterman This gambit is not going well for McCain. Here's Drudge's description of tonight's Letterman show: David Letterman tells audience that McCain called him today to tell him he had to rush back to DC to deal with the economy.

Dave even cut over to the live video of the interview, and said, "Hey Senator, can I give you a ride home?" Earlier in the show, Dave kept saying, "You don't suspend your campaign.

Hey, that bit that Letterman does about the Phil Donohue countdown calendar was like so funny....................oh yeah...that was in 1986. Not very funny after that.

Something's happened...maybe it's the kid...but his show is about as enjoyable as it's ever been lately

If that's not the result of a stroke, or related malady, then I don't know what to think.

So you're saying he had an unfunny show for 14 years?? And he kept his job?

Guess David Letterman is too big to fail!

What's he slyly up to?


Dave could be a kingmaker.

That was my first thought when I saw him today.

Explains a lot.
