I saw Senators Obama and McCain hug at Columbia University during the Forum on Service.

They "hugged" after Senator McCain concluded his portion of the event, as Senator Obama was introduced.

Will have to wait for a link.

They will be on stage together at least 3 more times for the debates. I think there's a good chance they could get friendly again, although the atmosphere will certainly be a lot less relaxed.
