Bye, Bye Romney. McCain's "Housing Fiasco" Probably Just Cost You the VP Slot.

[David Zephyr]

Now that Americans are learning that John McCain, the advocate for the uber-rich, is worth over $100 Million and can't even keep track of the number of homes he owns, how can he choose a man even richer than he and Cindy is to be his VP running mate? Mitt Romney pissed away nearly $50 Million on his vanity campaign this year.

I would have bet the farm that Romney was going to be the one, but not tonight.

I think McCain's housing blooper just ended Mitt's chances.

1. Yeah, you're probably right on that one!

Romney is McCain on steroids with regard to wealth.

2. Hmmmm...I still think he's going for Polenty, and if that's the case,

I REALLY HOPE that Barack choses Biden. Can you just see the debate between Biden and the whimp! Ohhhh, I'd love it!

3. Interestingly, even with all that wealth, I think they live more simply than

the McCain's. I read a story where Romney's wife has a cleaning lady come in only once a week (and I believe she has MS, so having more help would be justified). I read a blog from McCain's daughter where they were at a get-together at one of their properties :eyes: (I think "the ranch") and she mentioned some guy "who is our cook at the ranch.

4. No David: All Romney's assets are held in blind trusts..

He's safe... until he gets the question.
