19. I think its a bad strategy and could backfire
A lot of people can't use a PC competently - hell, my dad is a Chemical Engineer and he still calls me to help him out with his e-mail and computer problems. I know plenty of people around my office that aren't that good with a computer and some even come to me for assistance, even though I'm not IT!

I get the point that they are trying to attack McCain for being "OLD" and "Out of Touch" - because he is - but the way to do that isn't by insulting him over a point that over 50% of all Americans are computer illiterate. I think this is a bad move and will be countered and capitalized on immediately by the McCain campaign.
