Jerry Brown got so rattled from the debate his keyboard got stuck on ALL CAPS and he didn't even notice

Typing in all caps in a major turnoff in social media like Twitter and Facebook and email.  It makes you look angry or inept.  Not smart if you are trying to communicate with your followers.

And it's a major blunder if you are 72 years old and trying not to draw attention to your age.

So I was stunned to check in on Moonbeam's twitter page after the debate, to see he was typing in all caps.

Didn't he realize his ALL CAPS key was stuck on??  Just reinforces that Moonbeam, at 72, is pretty old.

Below are a few of Moonbeam's post-debate tweets.

Yes, I know Moonbeam's staff does most if not all of the tweeting on Jerry's account. So what what was Brown's staff thinking??

Jerry Brown has a "senior moment" during the debate

Acting his age?

He's 72, by the way.

Novel explanation for Jerry Brown's use of "tea bagger" slur - "Jerry is old"

Commenter dsgonzale6 at Joe Garofoli's Politics Blog attributes Brown's use of the "teabagger" slur to Jerry Brown being really old.

I expect lefties will be use Brown's age as an excuse for all kinds of failures in this campaign.

Which tells me Moonbeam is almost certainly past his prime.

Jerry Brown turns 72 tomorrow... same age McCain was when McCain lost in 2008

Jerry Brown turns 72 tomorrow.

McCain's age was a big deal in the 2008 election and the media never kept reminding voters that Grampa McCain was really old.  Lefty pundits like Anna Quindlen asked How Old is Too Old?   David Letterman joked about McCain being old.  The day after McCain officially launched his campaign in 2007, the Boston Globe devoted several paragraphs to concerns about McCain's age.

Do you think the left-wing media will hand-wring about Moonbeam's age like they did about McCain's age?

Me neither.
