John McCain has been hitting Barack Obama hard from day one for being an elitist and out of touch with us middle class folks so when the number of houses he owned came into play, the campaign went into damage control. And as I have documented several times, when the McCain camp goes into damage control what usually pops up?

He also added: “This is a guy who lived in one house for five and a half years — in prison,” referring to the prisoner of war camp that McCain was in during the Vietnam War.

Yep that POW card again.

Anyway the McCain camp was asked by Politico how many houses he and his wife owned and the McCain camp was only off by 4. But as McCain says, not remembering how many houses he has is a non-issue because voters care more about a candidates ethics and not whether they can find their way home at the end of the day…
