    The McCain one kills me. This man doesn't have email, can't run a computer, but should be elected as President of the United States of America. Simply amazing.

    Who has time for computers when you have to work in so many daily naps?

    We have a sales guy who has been known to tell advertisers to MP3 their ad to our production department.

    An 88-year-old professor just e-mailed me back in 4 minutes. This was within the hour, today.

    And we have legislators and a presidential nominee who think they're fit to lead the country, who don't have a clue what the Internet is? Sad, sad, sad.

    I have a five year old nephew who e-mailed me the other day from halfway around the world. Maybe we should make him president.

    I find it pretty telling that your 5-year-old nephew has better computer skills than the Republican presidential nominee-in-waiting.

    Just where in the Constitution does it list computer skills as a requirement?
