Quite possible, and the McCain camp is still trying to figure out what Linux is, and if it is a threat to national security.
Since invention of flash video we are free from unnecessary plugins and related burden.
Right, because Flash is free software, so it works with every current OS and browser.

Plugins like, oh, I don't know, maybe, FLASH?!

Phew. That's a relief.
They should get a hold of Ted Stevens. He knows alot about computers and networking stuff.
They want me to pay for my operating system??
Oh well, I think I have windows installed in a PC in one of my seven houses....
Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Except it's the no-sound version.
You say that like it's a bad thing...
Well, he is the bigger evil. The bigger and the better evil(I mean, he could be the devil's great-great-grandfather).
That's why he gets my vote. Because Obama is a lesser evil and I don't like to vote for lesser.

I hate to let this go any further, but the bronze age didn't have digital computers. I think they used bronze punch cards. Gee I can't wait for the youth of tomorrow to cannibalize us all. At least they'll know how many houses they have. They can keep track using emacs or vi.
Vote McCain/Whoever 2008
Finally! A VP candidate with no bad positions on any of the issues!
Well hell, we should just skip waiting for McCain to drop dead of old age for the VP to move up to president. Whoever is the better half of that ticket! I say we just elect Whoever as President in the first place!
Who's with me? WHOEVER FOR PRESIDENT! Hell yeah!
