McCain Campaign Pulls Out of Tech Debate, Apologizes With a Telegram

Wired News and its their title LOL

After weeks of wrangling, Wired had finally gotten commitments from
high-level surrogates from both the Obama and McCain campaigns to
participate in a debate about technology yesterday afternoon.

So how did it go? It didn't. The McCain campaign canceled a few hours
before the event, with no plans to reschedule. While McCain's personal
indifference to technology , difficult-to-defend tech policies,
personal vendettas and general oldness all come to mind as
reasons for this decision, more likely than not they
just didn't see this as the most effective way to, you know, win.

Oh well.
