Thanks - no, I did not click on the link.

However, now that I read his comments before and after, I see no flip-flop. He said he supported her as the moderator and believed she would be fair both before and after. The second time, he said that frankly, he wished they hadn't picked someone who was writing a book that was favorable about his opponant... but then went on to say he believed she would be fair.

There are things I can ultimately live with and be supportive of that wouldn't be my biggest preference because in the end, I trust the process. I think that's probably where John McCain fell.

No doubt, if she was in the middle of a book favorably highlighting McCain, Obama would've said that frankly that doesn't ring his bell, but that given her history as a journalist he trusted her to be fair.
