Reminder: McCain Can't Use a Computer

by Christine Whitney on June 12, 2008 at 01:02 PM


Oh McCain candidacy. First there was the cottage cheese and jello thing, and now we are once again reminded of this: In a (sort-of) recent Yahoo video re-highlighted by HuffPo, members of the Republican Party admit to not watching movies (un-American!) and favoring PCs over Macs (gasp).

Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, et. al admit their love for the computer of the Right, though Romney tries to play political by throwing in a mention of his kids' Mac use.

This sounds real boring, but wait -- the real banger of the video comes later, when less-pretty-and-popular presidential hopeful John McCain admits he doesn't know how to use a computer.

"My wife does it for me," was pretty much the gist of his response.

Really? For real? We almost think this is an ill-timed joke, as even our Nanas can peck out an e-mail on their Mesozoic desktops. But jeez, John. That's gonna cost you the presidency.

Mac? PC? Who are they? [Source: Yahoo!, via HuffPo]
