Flashback: 1982

The ad shows McCain struggling to get out of a golf cart while the announcer says, "He admits he still doesn't know how to use a computer; can't send an email." It's effective, but it's harsh. It's already seen signs of backfiring; I suspect we'll see more of that.

I do have to say, though, Johnny looks damn sexy in those glasses at the beginning.

The original video is here. Althouse puts in her two cents here:

"At the end, a third item is thrown in, the usual complaint about tax cuts for the rich and nothing for you, which doesn't really carry on the old clueless guy theme very well."

UPDATE: "The reason he doesn't send email is that he can't use a keyboard because of the relentless beatings he received from the Viet Cong in service to our country."
