Should John McCain do the Letterman show?

Tweet

We all know that Dave is seriously irritated that McCain blew off a shceduled appearance on his show, claiming that he was flying off to Washington immediately to deal with the economic crisis, only to be busted by Dave, still in New York and giving a television interview during the taping of his show. Since then both McCain and Palin have been the butt of Letterman's jokes and comedy skits. Dave also seems to be escalating his attacks as time passes. On the show this past Friday night the attacks were focused mainly on Palin, starting with the opening monologue and continuing with three digitally altered clips of her during the debate designed to make her look like a complete idiot. These were followed by Palin's top ten voice mail messages where Dave took shots at both Palin and McCain. Dave's first guest, Brian Williams of the NBC Nightly News who has also been shunned by the McCain camp, spent the entire segment making fun of the ticket...mostly Palin. Dave said on his show Friday night that the road to the White House goes through him and, while this certainly isn't true, these nightly slaps in the face of the McCain camp can't be helping. Should McCain win the election he's set himself up for the same kind of treatment Bush has had to endure with the Great Moments In Presidential Speeches bit done nightly. So, what do you think? Should John McCain appear on the Letterman show with an olive branch of peace, hoping to stop the attack, or just let the media chips fall where they may?
