I can't imagine the Obama campaign doesn't know McCain can't use a keyboard because of his war injuries. I think they know, they're just hoping no one else does (and the MSM will help keep it quiet), so they can mock him for being an old fogy too old to use a computer.

Senator Obama: Stop! You Have Now Run the Worst Commercial of this Campaign! This fellow is very charitable imo. John Mark Reynolds Politics 09.12.2008 Senator Obama is a good and decent man. However, he has been advised to start “attacking” John McCain. Fine. Politics is a contact sport. Earlier today I commented that his “McCain is old” commercial was a dumb attack, because it would alienate older voters. Now I discover that it was a grossly tasteless and offensive commercial since: 1. it accuses John McCain of not using a computer or sending email . . . 2. the media has long reported that this is because he cannot use a keyboard due to his severe war injuries. This was unintentional, but utterly stupid. Why didn’t someone check this? Was it because they did not know McCain was a POW? I take no joy in watching Senator Obama’s campaign act self-destructively. Nobody wants to win because his opponent decided to attack him for being wounded in service to his country. scriptoriumdaily.com
