John McCain Is A Technophobe, Resents His Wife Over It Too

John McCain has admitted previously to be a computer illiterate that leaves everything electronic to his wife. However, the story runs deeper than that as it seems that McCain is an outright technophobe and apparently he resents his wife for her technological prowess. According to the AP, it is one of twenty-five things you may not know about the Arizonan Senator.

From ThinkProgress:

The AP has released a “pre-convention package” with lists of “25 Things About Obama” and “25 Things About McCain.” Number two on the McCain list is a tidbit from Cindy McCain: Her husband gets annoyed by her interest in technology. Via Politico’s Playbook:

His wife says her obsession with electronic gadgets and technology is one of his pet peeves.

So not only does Cindy have to help McCain send e-mails, but he resents the fact that she takes an interest in e-mail in the first place. Even in his own demographic — white, college-educated men over 65 — McCain is an outlier. According to the Pew Internet & American Life Project, approximately three-quarters of this group use the Internet. More on McCain’s disastrous tech policies here.

Well I guess that isn't as bad as calling her a "See you next Tuesday" or a trollop, but it does add a little more to that maverick persona he so loves to display. In the next two months as the pressure builds, don't be surprised to see more of it.
