Much like Al Gore inventing the Internet, the prospect that John McCain invented the BlackBerry is something the liberals are going to latch on to, even though, technically, they're taking the assertion out of context. Speaking to reporters on the campaign trail, McCain's top economic adviser Douglas Holtz-Eakin responded to a question about what his candidate did as chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee that helped him understand the financial markets — by holding up his BlackBerry and pronouncing, "He did this. Telecommunications of the United States is a premier innovation in the past 15 years, comes right through the Commerce Committee. So you're looking at the miracle John McCain helped create and that's what he did."

Indeed, manufacturer Research In Motion might beg to differ, as might McCain himself. But what Holtz-Eakin did wasn't just throw seasoned bait to the left-wing attack dogs, but he also connected John McCain with DESTROYING AMERICAN FAMILIES!!!

Some 35 percent of 6,500 traveling business executives polled by a Sheraton Hotels-sponsored study claimed they would choose their BlackBerry over their spouse. And that's on top of other stats, like 87 percent of them saying they bring their smartphone into the bedroom; 84 percent checking email before bed; 80 percent saying they checked email after getting up — and more than 75 percent of respondents insisting the devices give them more quality time with friends and family.

McCain might not be able to check his own email, but he sure knows how to set up a divorce.
