Oh, Four or Seven- Whatever!

"I'd say $5 million." I would too, Mr. McCain, but I'd start with $200,000. It seems that the old 'maverick' and straight-talker has so much money that he can't quite come to grips with the fact that the median household income in America hovers in the $40,000 range. I guess he doesn't know either that the median number of houses owned by Americans is one. He forgot that he and Cindy own seven. Four was the campaign's number.

Now this is the absolutely best guy to rule the roost for the next four years, isn't it? He can empathize with the pain of the average American. The saddest part of this little McCain-economics reality series is that the $40k citizen thinks that McCain will help them through their present and upcoming financial woes.

But, he is a right-to-lifer which trumps everything. And a warmonger too! And a veteran.

There you go, America, a neat bundle all wrapped up in the Flag. No doubt about it.
