Obama Camp will be phoning FL and PA residents asking: "Do you know how many homes you own?"

http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/08/21/politics/horserace/entry4370050.shtml

<snip>

And the Obama campaign in Florida and Pennsylvania has sent out a release lauding the launch of a "statewide search to find Floridians/Pennsylvanians who, like John McCain, have so many homes that they just can’t keep track of the number."

From the Pennsylvania release:

The campaign will spend the day surveying Pennsylvanians by phone to ask this question:

“Yesterday, John McCain couldn’t remember how many homes he owns because he has so many. The Obama campaign is trying to find Pennsylvanians who, like McCain, have lost track of the number of homes they own. Do you know how many homes you own?”

The campaign will announce the results of the search late this afternoon and they will produce a video of the responses they get in Love Park.

2. I think this will be much more effective than tangling with the war hero image.

6. When McCain acts outraged, they need to push back with the humor comment McCain
always makes in reply to criticism of Obama ads. They should tell the almost three quarters of a century old man that he needs to "keep his sense of humor."

7. One of my butlers is looking that up.
Glad they're not calling Georgia. That would be embarrassing to not know how many homes you own.

Hopefully I'll know shortly.

9. You mean you don't have a "staff" to look it up for you?
Just a measly butler?

You fail as a true Conservative.

15. Finally an approach that might work. Why not do it in all states and
gear it toward the white voters that liked Hillary, but not Obama...and the independents?

19. Agree! Ohio, at least, and for example, for sure. Very hard hit state
by the mortgage crisis.

22. Oh quit picking on McCain. A lot of Americans
Don't know how many homes they own.

Could be one or could be zero, depending on which part of the foreclosure dealings they are facing.
