And YOU thought Obama was "tech-savvy"...

Guess who among US politicians is a "twitter zen-master?" None other than Senator John McCain! Politico sez a new report has named McCain the senator with the highest “Digital I.Q.,” a metric based on use of social media, including frequency of posts and number of followers. McCain has over 650000 "fans" on Facebook, and over 1.7 million followers on Twitter!!! So who has Johnny been following?
via The Phoenix New Times ::: Ironically, many analysts have given partial credit for McCain's downfall in the 2008 presidential election to his failure to embrace social media and reach young voters as effectively as Barack Obama.[...]
"I kind of think she might be too good looking to go to jail." —John McCain on Snooki (who was recently arrested for disorderly conduct) during an interview on a Phoenix radio show. Previously, the Jersey Shore star called the 73-year-old senator "really cute." Tweet Tweet Tweet On!
