Is John McCain a Creationist?

This quote struck my eye from the write ups of last nights Republican presidential debates:

Mike Huckabee : "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Either someone believes God created the process, or that it's an accident and it just happened,"

John McCain: "I can't say it more eloquently than Pastor Huckabee just did. I hold that view."

So is John McCain a creationist or is he just pandering to the religious right again? Well I kind of hope its the latter, I'm not sure I could stand another four years of the world being led by somebody who believes in fairy stories.
