The point of course being that 99.9% of all Americans when asked, know exactly how many houses they (and their spouses) own.

The point of course being that for the vast majority of Americans, the number of homes that they own is quite simply.... ONE.

The point of course is that McCain may have known... but due to his advanced age, he simply forgot.

The point of course being that home ownership is such a forgone conclusion to John McCain that it just isn't a big deal- a home is much like a TV set for most Americans.... how many do YOU own? Did you have to give the answer a moments thought??

The point of course is that John McCain does not see the world as most Americans do.

The point of course is that John McCain may really, really, really believe that there is no serious problem with the U.S. economy. And from HIS perspective, maybe he is right-

The point of course is that I don't live in John McCain's world anymore than John McCain lives in mine.

And THAT of course, is the point. HE is the one who is not one of us, when "us" refers to an "average" American struggling to make ends meet.

For purposes of "full disclosure" - Barack Obama "owns" one home- and THAT one is MORTGAGED. Now that is something that I can relate to.

In closing, do not be surprised that this one story has the legs to last till election day- just like when George Bush Sr. was asked a similarly innocent question concerning the price of a gallon of milk.
