Here's why John McCain's handlers have put an end to the days of his endless hobnobbing with his constituents in the media.
The Politico asked him how many homes he in fact owns. He didn't know:
"I think — I'll have my staff get to you," McCain told Politico in Las Cruces, N.M. "It's condominiums where — I'll have them get to you."
A Godsend to the Obama campaign. Picture the hilarious commercial that could be made out of this one. A geeky tax assessor scouring the nation, looking for McCain's homes. Looked in the working-class areas of Tempe. Nope, nothing there. Looked in Twenty Nine Palms, California. Nada. Looked on the beachfront in incredibly posh La Jolla. Eureka! And finally: "Is it any wonder he doesn't understand what regular Americans are going through? You don't want four more years of this." Again: emotion, issues, character.
Wager: something tells me his staff will "forget" to get to them.
