title: Datastax QueryBuilder insert statement
body: <p>What would be the right way to build a insert statement with QueryBuilder from Datastax Java Driver for Cassandra</p>
  
  <p>I am using Cassandra 2.x with Java Driver 2.0.0-rc1</p>
  
  <p>I know i could use a prepared statement to achieve the same but i am looking forward to using the QueryBuilder</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Test
  public void testTableInsert() {
      Insert insert = QueryBuilder
              .insertInto(KEYSPACE_NAME, TABLE_NAME)
              .value("username", "jdoe")
              .value("first", "John")
              .value("last", "Doe");
      System.out.println(insert.toString());
      ResultSet result = session.execute(insert.toString());
      System.out.println(result);
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can confirm the query string is valid because it succeeds when attempting manually on cqlsh</p>
  
  <pre><code>INSERT INTO test.user(username,first,last) VALUES ('jdoe','John','Doe');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The error reported by the driver is </p>
