Why McCain Can't Email

Someone in the Obama campaign needs to get a clue. Obama spokesman Dan Pfeiffer said the following (From NR):

"It's extraordinary that someone who wants to be our president and our commander in chief doesn't know how to send an e-mail."

What the Obama campaign doesn't say is why McCain can't use email. From the Boston Globe 8 years ago:

McCain gets emotional at the mention of military families needing food stamps or veterans lacking health care. The outrage comes from inside: McCain's severe war injuries prevent him from combing his hair, typing on a keyboard, or tying his shoes. Friends marvel at McCain's encyclopedic knowledge of sports. He's an avid fan - Ted Williams is his hero - but he can't raise his arm above his shoulder to throw a baseball.

Maybe the Obama campaign will start to make fun of him for not throwing a baseball very far too. In any case, I don't think this argument will help Obama.
