Pity John McCain's poor web guy, as he tries to defend the fact that McCain--by his own admission--HAS NEVER USED THE INTERNET.

"Pressed again on McCain's tech savvy, [McCain aide Mark Soohoo] defends his candidate.

"You don't actually have to use a computer to understand how it shapes the country," he says.

"You actually do," former Edwards blogger Tracy Russo responds, suggesting he try to explain Twitter to his grandmother and then ask her how that applies to governing.

"John McCain is aware of the Internet," says Soohoo. "This is a man who has a very long history of understanding on a range of issues."

There is no way that someone who has never used the internet can understand the world we live in. It's just not possible.
