Now the shoe's on the other foot.
We do need to move past this and hammer more on the issues.
The damage to McCain has been done on this one. People will remember.
DUH!
We have to nail McCain on the bigger issues.
Don't change the subject, just put into context of the issues. But keep hammering away on this.
Richardson was on Larry King last night and LK served this up on a platter to him. Once Jindal had his rebuttal, which was "ok, this has run its course, let's move on to the real issues" Richardson took the bate and the subject was changed without hammering it home. Repubs don't miss these kinds of opportunities. Dems shouldn't either.
I just don't want to see the "McCain houses" angle getting as played out as the "McCain POW" angle that rethugs are using.
I read, maybe on HuffPost, that he was actually closing on a million dollar condo the very day he made his "forget your vacation to make your mortgage" statement
He wrote the script...............we're just reading it
Issues, of course, with "the house thing" to hammer it home.
John McCain, "a Republican presidential candidate who, despite the hype, doesn't seem to know much about foreign affairs. McCain recently talked at length about problems on the "Iraq/Pakistan border" - the countries are a thousand miles apart. Asked how to deal with Darfur, he mused about "bringing pressure on the government of Somalia". Uh - it's Sudan, Senator McCain. And he keeps expressing his desire to build up US relations with Czechoslovakia, a country that hasn't existed for 15 years. " Unfortunately, we are not getting this pertinent information about a candidate for the Presidency, the highest office in the land, from our Republican-owned media, which is a derelict of their duty.

And, also "If someone can't keep track of their personal finances -- for example, can't even say how many homes they own -- should they really be in charge of our whole nation's finances?" (Gordon Fischer)
However, this is more than McCain just being out of touch (12 houses) and greed -- this is about competency, because McCain has made many misstatements and gaffes which are not reported by the media, which would show and also highlight just not McCain's Confusion but also his Age!
Let's add Putin, the leader of Germany
Czechoslovakia?????
Sunni/Shiite---they al look the same from a distance
A nine-car motorcade took him to a nearby Starbucks early in the morning, where he ordered a large cappuccino.

"No honey. Remember I told you about an hour ago. We're not at the house with a pool. We're at a different one."
McShames are spae-shul! Rich white anglos and given the family business Im sure if we check a bit further they just hjave to have one with a pool filled with beer.
Jeez Louise, a couple of illegal elective cosmetic fetal tissue and organ implants in southeat Asia ??? Didn't Mother Theresa, Asia's fetal answer to Col. Sanders, personally hand select Sin-dy's plump, hormone-rich orphans???
I came over to link this item---some guy is making key fobs for each of McCain's properties--but I guess he's going to have to make several more now.

I'll bet there a more than a few skeletons in those many, many closets.
He is a kept man, kept by his partner in adultery, who just happens to be a beer heiress, who's father and uncle were both convicted felons.
Ever since he left the military, McShame has been on the family payroll one way or another. Good old Cindy was/is a drug addict who was not above stealing from a so-called charity she had a hand in starting. Now it seems that the people of Arizona must have a pretty high tolerance for ignoring the laws, well when you are republicon, and connected to a leading dynasty, even if it was founded by bottleggers. Face it people without the Cindy connection McShame would probably be just another broken Viet Nam veteran, living under a bridge in Arizona. McShame, despite his talk, hasn/t really done all that much for his fellow veterans, but he isn't too proud to keep taking the Navy pension. HE continues this trend by not really doing much for current veterans, but not too proud to take credit for some help that passed over his buddy Dubya's objections.
John McCain is a kept man, John McCain is a man without honor. John McCain is a manwhore and a moral leper.

In Arizona, the McCains lived until several years ago in Cindy McCain's childhood home in Phoenix, which was featured in the glossy pages of Architectural Digest in 2005. They sold it soon after and moved into a $4.7-million condominium in Phoenix.
The McCains spend weekends, if possible, in the remote rolling hills of Sedona. Their 15-acre compound features a modest residence and several guest cabins beside a creek sheltered in a verdant box canyon. The assessed value is $1.6 million.
The McCains also spent $4.7 million to buy two beachfront condos near the posh Hotel del Coronado in San Diego County.
In an interview with Vogue magazine, Cindy McCain confessed that her husband, who has suffered from skin cancer and must avoid the sun, wasn't initially in favor of buying oceanfront property.
"When I bought the first one, my husband, who is not a beach person, said, 'Oh, this is such a waste of money; the kids will never go,' " she said. "Then it got to the point where they used it so much I couldn't get in the place. So I bought another one."

Nah, nothing elitist about owning several houses over one million dollars. Nothing elitist about that at all.
Why is it that in most areas of interest and legitimate concern the McCain story ( except his POW times ) are shrouded in mystery?
Full finanacial records. Military records. Medical records. Keating 5 resolution. Why should a candidate have to hide so much
and disclose so little?
WANT MORE PAIN ???????????????????VOTE McSAME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No wonder Cindy won't release her tax returns. Who knows what else she's trying to hide.
I could see having a vacation cottage or condo at the beach or in the mountains as a getaway and your main residence where you work, but TWELVE? WTF?
Is Cindy, like, just buying these places on a whim?
"Oh, dear, I'm so dreadfully tired of the colors of these window blinds. Sigh. I must call my real estate agent."
