John McCain, the Republican U.S. presidential nominee, finally made some time to come to David Letterman’s show. Between his campaign and his fight against the Democratic Party, the Arizona senator decided to show up on Thursday at CBS “Late Show” three weeks after he rescheduled his live appearance. At the time, the senator said that he had to go back to Washington to take part in the congressional efforts to make up an emergency bailout package to help the financial industry. Because of this, McCain had to suspend his presidential campaign too. Letterman said that rescheduling his appearance would only make McCain to show a political stunt that “ran contrary to the Vietnam War veteran’s status as an American hero.” He added that he was a little disappointed with McCain’s behavior and that he wouldn’t believe the reason for which he suspended his presidential campaign. "Are we suspending it because there's an economic crisis or because the poll numbers are sliding?" Letterman said. While Letterman was saying this about the Arizona senator, McCain was getting ready for an interview with CBS News anchor Katie Couric. A live internet video feed showed him having makeup applied. Seeing this, Letterman stated: "He doesn't seem to be racing to the airport, does he? Hey John, I got a question! You need a ride to the airport?" Yet, we still don’t know whether McCain will offer some apologies or he will make some spicy remarks on “Late Shows” host, David Letterman.
