IOKIYAJM

Via AMERICAblog, Jake Tapper and Ron Claiborn of ABC are reporting that McCain's aides won't say whether or not they had the capacity to find out what questions had been asked of Obama.

Everybody knows that the answer to that question is yes, they obviously had the capacity to overhear the questions and share them with McCain. As I've been saying the point isn't whether or not they actually did this -- the point is that they agreed to a set of rules designed to guarantee the integrity of the process, and they broke those rules.

But in their view, it's all okay, because John McCain was a POW.
