Reply #4: The Obama camp has not implied anything whatsoever.

[liberalmuse]

Why is the McCain camp lying? Obama has made no such claim. It is those of us who watched the forum who believe that McCain cheated, or at the very least, was given all questions in advance. I know that Obama and McCain were given the first two questions, but notice how McCain lied when he mentioned how hard the 1st question was and hoped the next question wouldn't be any harder. He knew what those two questions were, yet he played dumb. This man has no honor, and he lies every chance he gets. While McCain was answering the 3rd question, I knew he had heard Obama's segment. His answer was too close to Obama's. As a matter of fact, there were at least 3 answers that were similar to Obama's answers. I've seen McCain try to answer questions on the fly. If McCain hadn't consistently performed so miserably when answering spontaneously, this would not even be an issue.

That being said, this in no way reflects Obama's performance, which was above par. However, you knew Obama was answering off the cuff, because he did not appear to know what the questions were going to be, with the exception of the first two.

Also, I've nothing personally against Warren, but why did he lie so gratuitously for McCain? That alone makes me suspect that his 'unbiased' forum was indeed biased towards McCain from the very start.
