Default McCain - Just your average "Every man".

HA.

The Republican presidential candidate started the fuss earlier this week when he fumbled a question from Politico about how many houses he owns. He hemmed and hawed, then said, "I'll have my staff get to you."

It works both ways,

McCain's advisers are counterattacking by criticizing Obama for getting help in purchasing his Chicago "mansion" from a felon.
Their both politicians and they're both wealthy, out of touch with the "common" person and probably have lots of skeletons in closets just waiting to get out. As Steve said not too long ago, there needs to be a "none of the above" on the ballot.

McCain is an extremely rich man (more than you think). Not an appropriate question I would say.

Obama isn't in the same ballpark as Mccain when it comes to being wealthy. But they are both politicians....

Obama made his money selling a book as far as I know.

This is true. If I'm not mistaken, though, isn't most of McCain's wealth actually his wife's (the Budweiser heiress). Not that it matters.
