Are there really high paying high tech jobs that go unfilled?

Back in 2010 CNN did a thing each night where they had ordinary people highlighted with their job resume's. I saw people on there who were damn near rocket scientists who couldn't get jobs.

And in his speech at the DNC...Pres. Obama stated that there are 3 MILLION high tech jobs right now in the U.S. that we just don't have enough educated people to fill.

Really?

So there are just 3 million high tech jobs that companies can't train ANYBODY to do right now? That sounds like some kind of bullshit that was made up and fed to us.
