McCain and Obama at Lake Forest/Saddleback church

From the Saddleback Church with pastor Rick Warren.
McCain was stuck first in the cone of silence while Obama spoke first. I could hardly listen to Obama with all the umms & ahs. McCain's answers were cut and dry, no long explaining like Professor Obama.
On Faith in Jesus, McCain told his "Cross in the sand" story:
When asked what faith in Jesus means to him, McCain replied, "Means I'm saved and forgiven. Our faith encompasses not just America but the world."

McCain got teary-eyed while discussing an experience with a guard during his experience as a prisoner of war in Vietnam. The guard, McCain said, drew a cross in the sand while he was praying on Christmas Day. "For a minute there, we were just two Christians worshipping together."
