Anyone know the combined net worth of a McCain/Romney ticket?
It might be a useful number, or even the house total. I would suspect it's double digits.

4. Good, the McCain can put his money where his mouth is and finance his own campaign.
That should get the GOP elite's panties in a wad.

2. Zero or negative.
Oh, did you mean their financial worth or their worth to society?

3. Romney has four houses
at least that's what he claims.

I think he's worth like $300 million.

5. McRomney- more homes than electoral votes.
Puhleeze let it be Mittens. The religious fundies will stay home rather than vote for the "cultist" who would take over if McBush should die in office.

14. Does it appear to you that the republicans have written off the fundie base?
Romney is the likely Veep and he's a Mormon and there's no way the fundies can trust McCain on abortion issues; neither side can.

I think the republicans are shunning their most useful idiots.

7. I guess Romney is much younger, he'll be able to keep track of the number of all the houses
I can see the bumper sticker:

Vote For The Two Rich Guys
More Tax Breaks For Their Rich Buddies
Lower Wages for the Middle Class

9. You are getting into Doctor Evil numbers with those two.
Number two is the wealthier of the bunch because he has taken Globochem to new markets during the time McHouses was cryogenicly frozen in his Big Boy spaceship.

11. Not worth a plugged nickel
Once again, a huge difference in intrinsic value and the ledger entry of money carried on the books. Just like Enron.
