Let's eat!
Had you clicked on the link posted earlier, you would have seen that HE spoke of the book she wrote. Here is the link again:
McCain: Ifill Will Do 'Professional Job' - Real Clear Politics - Elections 2008 - TIME

Makes your assumption wrong. He most definitely KNEW when he made this supportive comment about the book. He was informed of the book and still supported her as the moderator. To flip 2 days later makes him look bad and indecisive.
