McCain unsure how many houses he owns 
 Source: Politico

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said in an interview Wednesday that he was uncertain how many houses he and his wife, Cindy, own.

"I think — I'll have my staff get to you," McCain told Politico in Las Cruces, N.M. "It's condominiums where — I'll have them get to you."

The correct answer is at least four, located in Arizona, California and Virginia, according to his staff. Newsweek estimated this summer that the couple owns at least seven properties.

In recent weeks, Democrats have stepped up their effort to caricature McCain as living an outlandishly rich lifestyle — a bit of payback to the GOP for portraying Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) as an elitist, and for turning the spotlight in 2004 on the five homes owned by Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) and his wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry.

2. Agree--- a totally perfect KILLER ad. No need for elaboration, there.
 NONE.

This would be a big mistake for obamassiah. The The Rezko/Obama lot deal would be brought up as a counter argument. obama would slide ever further down in the polls.

I hope the obamassiah people make an ad. I really do.

Does a guy who made more than $4 million last year, just got back from vacation on a private beach in Hawaii and bought his own million-dollar mansion with the help of a convicted felon really want to get into a debate about houses? Does a guy who worries about the price of arugula and thinks regular people “cling” to guns and religion in the face of economic hardship really want to have a debate about who’s in touch with regular Americans?

The reality is that Barack Obama’s plans to raise taxes and opposition to producing more energy here at home as gas prices skyrocket show he’s completely out of touch with the concerns of average Americans.

Some fellows are lucky enough to marry rich and good looking women. Then some just marry rich and put up with a bunch of crap.

B. Hussein claimed was going to be a different kind of politician who didn't resort to attack ads.  Another lie.

this new guy on McCain's team is one of the best I've seen in a long, long time.. he doesnt let anything pass by, and his responses are just deadly.

cant wait to see how Barry whines about the Mccain response  :-)

They should have also added, "If Obama wants to get into it about houses, perhaps he would like to speak about his brother George's 6' x 9' hut and the fact he survives on about $1 a day."

Can you friggen believe his brother is living like that and the man who thinks you and I should pay more to pay for those who have less doesn't even help his brother who lives in a 6' x 9' hut on less than $1 a day or month.  Per day or month, either way it doesn't look good.

Yeah, about one dollar a month in Kenya sounds right.

When I was in the socialist paradises of the workers and peasants with free medical care for all, the "average" wage in Ukraine was $11 per month, and in Russia, $18.

That is, when people got paid, which wasn't often.

At the post offices, for example, at each counter there was always a selection of home-made vodka or Turkish chocolates or foodstuffs for sale, by the individual clerk.  They were supposed to be paid, but never got paid, and so lived off of selling other things at their place of employment.

A family I stayed with briefly in Kiev was a printer for the socialist printing concern.  He never got paid, and so as to support the family, he did print-jobs on the side, using company time, company equipment, and company supplies.

Thus is life outside of America and western Europe.

The guy was a pretty good printer; he made me an official-looking "identity card," my photograph and seals attached, announcing me as "PLANNED PARENTHOOD OF AMERICA, Vice-President, Abortion Marketing and Franchising."

It wouldn't have passed here, but there, nobody had any idea of what American "identification" looked like, and besides, it was stamped and embossed with seals.....

Does a product of the Chicago democrat machine really want to encourage the opposition to research his own real estate finances? I don't expect B. Hussein to push this very hard.
