Not that I would want this to happen, but what if McCain or Obama passed away before the November election day, who would take their place for their parties nomination? Would it postpone the election day?

No, it wouldn’t postpone anything. Either the election would go ahead with just one person (and the dead person’s name would be on the ballot and wouldn’t be removed) or the party would be allowed to provide a substitute.
