John McCain Doesn't Know How to Operate a Computer.



He's been trolling universities, poaching youngsters to attend his speeches, so that the people standing behind him no longer look like Heaven's waiting room, but then he goes and spoils it all by sounding like Methuselah.

I mean Ron Paul's not a youngster and yet he gets it. Maybe McCain is simply too rich and has too many staff that he doesn't have to bother. Though I notice he claims his wife does it all. Yeah, right. With $100 million in the bank - and nine homes to oversee - she has to do all that stuff all by herself, 'cos wee Johnny just doesn't get it!

I'm really trying not to be ageist about this, but shouldn't a president at least understand the times that he is living in so that he can shape those times?

I mean McCain recently revealed that he thinks that EBay can be a model for job and economic growth.

To be fair to him, someone must have fed him that nonsense, as I am very sure he doesn't actually know what EBay is.

The Republican Young Conservatives must be beside themselves.. what an awful candidate. At least Bush , dare I say, had some DEFINITELY JE NE SAID QUA (sp??) that made him connect with the ordinary person..
McCain cannot even do that..

The Presidency is essentially a CEO position. Would any major corporation hire a CEO without computer skills these days? Is he going to send a telegram instead of an email? Good luck with that, then.

With all of the talk about Obama being "unqualified", this places McCain firmly in that category.

Ingrid and Todd,

It's astonishing that McCain is so out of touch with the age in which he lives.

And he plans to lead the world's only superpower at such a time?

Ridiculous...
