"Turn off the TV set. Put away the video games"
I agree with him 100%.

But it's also kind of funny how he predictably repeats this in every speech and town meeting. Maybe because no other politician has the balls to remind parents of this.

6. Me?
I think I'm going to go play Rock Band because it helps me get in touch with my inner child... Oh, and I love doing fun things with my kids - 8 year olds can only take so much political debate.

It is possible to do more than one thing in a day - It's called multitasking. One could argue that spending time on the internet on political sites is something we should all stay away from too.

McCain is living in the horse and buggy era and it shows.

Jeesh.
