No Questions, Please

From the Journal ...

Then came the event in Wilmington, N.C., held at -- irony alert!- Cape Fear Community College. McCain stood in front of the crowd and said he would take questions or comments after he delivered his remarks. He finished his prepared speech and tacked on a longtime stump story about the bracelet he wears. But then the music and handshaking began. No questions or comments to be heard--at least those directed at the senator. "I thought this was a town hall meeting?" a man asked the press corps.

Curious. And this isn't a rhetorical question. Has McCain taken audience questions since the Obama/Arab question last week?
