I noticed that McCain refused to shake Obama's hand last night post-debate as the two were meeting the audience. After a review of the videotape (nothing escapes the lens), it appears that McCain tapped Obama on the back and may have said something to introduce Cindy; Obama turned and realized his hand was to the right of Cindy and promptly adjusted.
The conspiracy theorists are already pounding the keys on this one; I don't think there's anything to it (they did shake hands just before the Brokaw-McCain teleprompter moment). Regardless, I'm not expecting any "Kum ba yah" moments between the two of them anytime soon.

I was raised to show respect towards others. Some of the ways to be an honorable man was to look people in the eye, speak the truth, and shake people’s hands. To refuse a hand that was extended to you was a sign of disrespect. For McCain to refuse to shake Obama’s hand reveals McCain’s lack of character. http://straighttalkonmccain.blogspot.com/
I am not sure. I do think though at one point they did shake hands.
