Late night talk show host David Letterman poked fun at Republican presidential nominee John McCain after the Arizona senator canceled his appearance on Letterman's show. The decision came on the heels of the McCain camp's decision to temporarily suspend campaign.
Letterman disses McCain for canceling appearance

NEW YORK — "Late Show" host David Letterman treated Republican presidential candidate John McCain's decision to cancel an appearance on his talk show more like a stupid human trick than the act of a statesman.
McCain said he was halting his campaign activities Wednesday, citing the need to deal with the nation's financial crisis, and called Letterman to drop out of the show's late-night lineup. On the air Wednesday night, Letterman assailed McCain's rationale and, with prickly humor, questioned whether the nominee — now trailing in some polls — was in trouble.
"This doesn't smell right," Letterman said. "This is not the way a tested hero behaves. Somebody's putting something in his Metamucil."
McCain spokeswoman Nicole Wallace said Thursday that the campaign "felt this wasn't a night for comedy."
"We deeply regret offending Mr. Letterman, but our candidate's priority at this moment is to focus on this crisis," Wallace said on NBC's "Today" show.
Letterman called McCain "a true American hero" but told his viewers: "This is not the John McCain I know, by God. It makes me believe something is going haywire with the campaign."
Instead of suspending a campaign, Letterman said, a presidential candidate should go to Washington to deal with a crisis and let his running mate shoulder the burdens of politicizing.
"That's what you do. You don't quit. ... Or is that really a good thing to do?" Letterman said, a reference to McCain's running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. "What's the problem? Where are she? Why isn't she doing that?" he asked.
Letterman later asked: "Are we suspending it because there are an
economic crisis or because the poll numbers are sliding?"
Making matters worse for McCain, his replacement was MSNBC's "Countdown" host Keith Olbermann, a constant critic of McCain.
McCain told the CBS show that he was immediately flying back to Washington, Letterman told his audience. Then Letterman showed a TV feed of McCain being made up for an appearance on news anchor Katie Couric's "CBS Evening News."
As McCain spoke to Couric,
Letterman shouted at the feed:
"Hey, John. I've got a question.
Do you need a ride to the airport?"
"Doesn't seem to be racing to the airport, does he?" Letterman said. "This just gets uglier and uglier."
Letterman later said: "We're told now that the senator has concluded his interview with Katie Couric and he's now on Rachael Ray's show making veal picata. ... What are you going to do?"
