Update: Like I said, there are no coincidences: McCain VP Meeting a Distraction from Medical Records?
Political views aside, the "Hey, we didn't plan for it to happen on a Friday" rationale is wearing a bit thin:

Let's hope the mainstream reporters who get to glance at the 400 pages of records choose to report more in-depth findings once everyone is paying attention again next week.
