    Oops!

    This may work against McCain in the end, it seems that the pastor lied about McCain being "in isolation", he wans't even there. So it turns out he likely knew the questions in advance, since all his advisors heard them before he even arrived.

    Someone above wrote "The real winner is Rick Warren".

    Yeah, uh, not so much perhaps when it comes out that he lied. Actually it already has, he just basically admitted it on CNN.
