John McCain embarks on an historic first-ever visit

That's right folks "His first ever visit to the World Wide Web....

With his Democratic rival Barack Obama making headlines with his tour of the Middle East and Europe, the McCain campaign felt that they needed to "come up with something equally bold for John to do.

McCain aides said that the senator's journey to the Internet will span five days and will take him to such far-flung sites as Amazon.com, eBay and Facebook.

With a press retinue watching, Sen. McCain logged onto the Internet at 9:00 AM Sunday, paying his first-ever visit ever to Mapquest.com.

You go John Mcain.............

This is actually not a shock to me. I work with literally hundreds of people that are 55+ that don't understand the concept of a Wiki, let a lone a facebook or myspace page. I don't think he is really that far out of the loop for his generation.
