In an article posted this morning on Newsweek's website, an interviewer claims that John McCain describes himself as a "Christian" as far as his religious beliefs are concerned. When pressed about whether he believed that the Bible was true, the Republican presidential candidate is reported to have responded, "I don't know. Maybe."
The Obama campaign has responded quickly, released a statement saying, "McCain's acceptance of obviously absurd ideas demonstrates clearly his lack of fitness for the office of President of the United States."
Polling data released by Gallup indicate that McCain's admission has caused a dramatic decline in support among independents and voters with a college education.
