Obama does it again?

Will this come back to bite him in the ass? Nothing like poking fun at someone for never "learning" to use email, when in fact the guy can't use a keyboard because of the injuries he sustained as a captive in N.Vietnam:

The Barack Obama campaign is attacking rival John McCain for being computer illiterate. However, it looks like the Obama forces are the ones in need of a lesson in online research.
In a new advertisement, Obama attempts to portray McCain as “out of touch” for not using a computer.
However, according to Jonah Goldberg, writing at National Review, it only took a few minutes of “googling” to find out why the Republican doesn’t surf the net: “The reason he doesn’t send email is that he can’t use a keyboard because of the relentless beatings he received from the Viet Cong in service to our country.”
Both the Boston Globe and Slate Magazine reported on McCain’s injuries and their effect on his use of a computer back in 2000, Goldberg noted.
This is the second potentially high profile gaffe for Obama this week. Earlier, he came under fire for what some claimed was a reference to Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin as a pig.
Both attacks come at a time when Obama has seen his lead in the national polls all but vanish and a number of news stories have reported that Democrats are in a “panic mode” over the slide.
It is unclear whether Obama’s attacks on McCain and Palin will succeed or backfire. Many Democrats have urged the Illinois Senator to go negative, following McCain’s recent rise in the polls. Some, however, have speculated that the hard attacks could tarnish the Democrat’s claim to be a new kind of politician.
