For some reason, the McCain campaign is trying to paint Obama as elitist and out of touch.

So, there’s a certain irony that, when recently asked how many homes he owned, McCain couldn’t answer. He didn’t know how many homes he owned.

Smartly, the Obama campaign is capitalizing on this.

However, given the recent response to any sort of attack on McCain, I fully expect the indignant response of “Obama is implying that John McCain, a former POW, is out of touch.”

Where Giuliani was renowned for his endless plugging of 9/11, we can be sure McCain will constantly be going to the well about his POW status.

(And let’s not even go into the fact that he acquiesced to the current administration, and voted to allow the US to do to its POWs what was done to him in Vietnam.)

Mr. McCain, you’re a sad, sad man.
