Zero My Hero.

Yes, the McCain House Number is 8, but it really isn't the issue here.

The issue at hand is trying to clean off McCain's house holdings to construct an attack upon Obama's Rezko dealings, especially since it helps offset that $11 Million to $1 Million advantage of real estate value that John McCain's fam owns over the Obama fam.

I'm rather disappointed in McCain for using this as a political scrubber in order to avoid the real question at hand with the McCain attack on Obama: Who's really out of touch with the economic plight?

It's surprising that people can parse through the value of homes to somehow conclude that Obama is more evil. McCain's attack and deflection of the silly house question damages his straight talk. I would've just said, "Me, personally?" And then continued with, "None."

That would've been a great response, an honest response. But he had to go off, vetting the question, trying to maintain his pure status against the charge his campaign is leveling against Obama.

The real answer is ZERO. He doesn't own squat, which should've been easy for a capitalist to do. But a wanna-be capitalist?

Hmm.

Straight talk just went left, because John McCain shouldn't have played politics with his answer, and puts more into doubt what else he will swerve for in order to ensure Obama gets hit.

And economically, for a man who doesn't own anything other than words, what's the real story here? Trust Fund, Baby! Mako out.
