He is Pedigreed Naval Aristocracy, married to an heiress,

[Coexist]

who hobnobs at country clubs with former Presidents, owns 8 homes, and has racked up $500,000 on his credit cards in one month.

4. I'm pedigreed Navy aristocracy, too

I'm a direct descendant of Commodore Lewis Warrington, hero of the War of 1812, Commissioner of the Navy Board, one of the founders of the Annapolis Naval Acadamy, former Secretary of the Navy, recipient (on October 14, 1814) of the first medal of honor given by Congress and namesake of THREE ships that have served in the United States Navy. What is McCain's pedigree?

Alas, I never married into money (although with California and Mass., the possibility now exists) and never been to a country club. Although I did, once, get within a quarter mile of President Clinton when he was in Seattle for the WTO ministerial in 1999; my office was close to the hotel where he stayed. I never spoke to him, though.

Does that make me an elitist?

6. what is your stance on tire gauge's?

This is the true measure of elitism

[TechBear_Seattle]

7. I'm for them, of course

I may be a pedigreed snob, but I am a liberal. :hi:

10. McCain has a "wide stance," just like another GOP senator (nt)

[Coexist]

9. thats cool -

Mccain is the son and grandson of Admirals.

You win.

11. John Sidney McCain III, with 7 homes, $520 shoes, and a net worth of $40 million

is indeed the son & grandson of Admirals. He doesn't drink beer with you and me. He parties with Dubya, if you recall from the photos of them after Katrina had hit.

12. These people could hardly look more dead. I'm not wishing that on them, but,

honestly, I don't see anything presidential about his guy.
