But John McCain invented the Blackberry
 

Waving his BlackBerry personal digital assistant and citing McCain's work as a senator, Douglas Holtz-Eakin told reporters on Tuesday, "You're looking at the miracle that John McCain helped create."

 

In a statement, Democratic candidate Barack Obama's campaign spokesman Bill Burton said: "If John McCain hadn't said that 'the fundamentals of our economy are strong' on the day of one of our nation's worst financial crises, the claim that he invented the BlackBerry would have been the most preposterous thing said all week."

The McCain campaign was quick to back-peddle

Since this is a gambling website, thus the name Covers, and the Republicans passed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, when they had majorities in both the House and Senate. I write, VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS! SAVE FREEDOM IN AMERICA! God lets free individuals choose, some go to heaven and some go to hell. Republicans take away freedoms and try to legislate morality for all. God doesn't.

It isn't true, but it still is a great story.  The GOP will run with it.
