Help McCain Remember How Many Mansions He Owns

Here is some more on McCain's houses he forgot about..


Dear Guy,

What a tremendous job you've done with McCain's Mansions! Because of your efforts in spreading, distributing, and supporting this video, the media questioned McCain yesterday about just how many multimillion dollar homes he owns. And just what was McCain's response? "I think - I'll have my staff get to you," he said. "It's condominiums where - I'll have them get to you."

The fact that McCain couldn't remember how many mansions he has proves how elitist and divorced from economic reality he truly is. That's why McCain admitted economics is not his strongest suit, and why he offered a budget plan that would create the largest debt in our country since World War II. That's why he proposed tax hikes on employer-based health care, doesn't know the price of gas, and has no appreciation for the struggles of hard-working Americans facing foreclosure.

This reminds me of when George Bush, Sr. didn't know the price of a carton of milk or how to use a supermarket checkout counter machine. It was a story the media seized because it illustrated just how out of touch a candidate could be on the economy.
And here's your crucial chance to compel the media to turn McCain's gaffe into a similar revelatory moment. Redouble your efforts in spreading McCain's Mansions to everyone you know, regardless of political beliefs. Make sure your local news stations, newspapers, and blogs run it. Make sure people are talking about it around the dinner table and at churches and community centers. Make sure everyone sees for themselves the elitist that is John McCain.

Yours,

Robert Greenwald
