VIDEO: John McCain - How Many Homes?
Watch: VIDEO: John McCain - How Many Homes?
John McCain was the one sounding a lot like an elitist on Wednesday. In an interview with Politico, McCain admitted he had no idea how many houses he and his wife currently own.
"I think -- I'll have my staff get to you," McCain said.
The McCains own 10 homes, ranches, condos, and lofts. The combined worth is an estimated $13,823,269 (Progressive Accountability).
Barack Obama's current strategy of painting McCain as out of touch with ordinary people is getting a boost from this latest gaffe.
Today at an event in Virginia, Obama had this to say about the Politico interview:
"...there was another interview, where somebody asked John McCain, 'How many houses do you have?' He said, 'I'm not sure I'll have to check with my staff.' True quote! 'I'm not sure, I'll have to check with my staff.' So they asked his staff and he said, 'at least four.' At least four."

NONE
This isn't really a fair question. Everyone knows John McCain doesn't own any houses. They are owned by Cindy McCain and she made him sign a prenup because she doesn't trust him either.
She gives John an allowance. John is her "man-whore".
If John McCain is elected president, he will leave the country exactly the same way he left the Forrestal.
