The Big Question: How Many Houses Does John McCain Own?
Believe it or not, it's not a simple question. The McCain campaign is claiming he has only four, but this is bullshit because I can name at least six off the top of my head. He has three condos in California, a condo near Washington D.C., a ranch in Sedona, and a luxurious home in Phoenix.
One estimate put it at 9 homes. The Obama campaign, in their newest ad on this subject, is claiming seven:
This must include the six I mentioned above, plus a Phoenix loft they bought for Meghan McCain. Since the loft is owned by John and Cindy, it counts. Now Politico is saying that the real answer is 8.
We already see the McCain campaign flipping out, because they know how devastating this gaffe can be. Their first response was to call Obama an arugula-eating elitist even though he makes a middle-class income (by McCain's standards) of $4 million. Then they pulled the old POW card, which is just getting laughable at this point. And now they are going the smear route, ready to trot out Rezko and maybe even Wright.
Clearly the McCain campaign is in full-on panic mode.

Well, according to Michael Weiner Savage, Obama's a Marxist for even ASKING how many houses McCain owns!
The nuance being that McCain didn't even KNOW how many he owned, NOT the fact that he owned seven!
He cut off a caller after giving her a false choice: "McCain's either senile for not knowing or Obama's is against private property ownership"
