So you don't think she would need to be vetted at least slightly? She wasn't asked for a single piece of paper...

I'm sure that Multiple Mansion McCain will play out well with the public!
If I were Obama, I'd be careful about making wealth an issue in this campaign...

99% of FYM posters prefer Crest
The ADA Council on Scientific Affairs' Acceptance of Colgate Total® toothpaste is based on its finding that the product is effective in helping to prevent and reduce tooth decay, gingivitis, plaque above the gumline and bad breath when used as directed.
Haha, yes the Republican meme.
Obama was raised by a single mother on food stamps and was paying off his student loans up until a couple of years ago when he suddenly made $ off his book deal. All the money he has made has come from the books he's written, the royalties and the advances.
Not from marrying a multi-millionaire blonde heiress 20 years his junior.
I thought you Americans gave props to people who rose from the lower classes and through their own hard work became successful? Is the American dream dead?

and what's also important is that he actually wrote the books himself. Mark Salter writes McCain's books for him.
after divorcing his first wife who got all ugly after a horrific car wreck.
and John McCain, Prisoner of War, took his second honeymoon in ... wait for it ... Hawaii. elitist!!!
Why is it a shock to people in here that McCain is rich? Both candidates are extremely well-off, and if you're an American citizen who doesn't realize that or who hates either of them for being rich, than you're an idiot.
I think statistics like this say much, much more about the candidates than their wealth does:
In the years 2000 through 2007, Barack Obama donated between 0.4% and 6.1% of his net income to charitable causes.
McCain released his 2006 and 2007 tax returns, and in those years he gave 28.6% and 27.3% of his income to charitable causes.

What's scary is that most Americans will fall for this type of crap.
Okay, who are these multiple posters? I have asked this question before and even STING himself said he was only referring to Irvine.
So let's back it up boys.
McCain is DOA. What a sad, pathetic ending, honestly. And he has nobody to blame but himself. The man stands for absolutely nothing anymore.
what is absolutely ridiculous is that some people, and yes I will say people posting in this forum,
seem to have the attitude that having, earning and inheriting money is something distasteful of which one should be ashamed
Incidentally, and I only noticed this when searching your posts, you have a consistent record of ageist comments against McCain.
Are you prejudiced against elderly white men? Just curious.
Well I knew you wouldn't be able to find anything that backed up your previous statement...
Having a couple hundred million dollar fortune and living a lifestyle extravagant enough to own surplus homes as "investment properties", all the while blasting your opponent as "elitist" for the crime of worrying about food prices and visiting his family in (middle class destination!) Hawaii is pure hypocrisy.
When in Washington, the McCains live in a modern three-bedroom condominium in a high-rise in Arlington, across the Potomac River in Virginia. It is assessed at $847,800.
In Arizona, the McCains lived until several years ago in Cindy McCain's childhood home in Phoenix, which was featured in the glossy pages of Architectural Digest in 2005. They sold it soon after and moved into a $4.7-million condominium in Phoenix.
The McCains spend weekends, if possible, in the remote rolling hills of Sedona. Their 15-acre compound features a modest residence and several guest cabins beside a creek sheltered in a verdant box canyon. The assessed value is $1.6 million.
The McCains also spent $4.7 million to buy two beachfront condos near the posh Hotel del Coronado in San Diego County.
In an interview with Vogue magazine, Cindy McCain confessed that her husband, who has suffered from skin cancer and must avoid the sun, wasn't initially in favor of buying oceanfront property.
"When I bought the first one, my husband, who is not a beach person, said, 'Oh, this is such a waste of money; the kids will never go,' " she said. "Then it got to the point where they used it so much I couldn't get in the place. So I bought another one."
A McCain campaign spokesman did not immediately respond to an e-mail request for the number of rental and investment properties Cindy McCain and her children own through trusts and partnerships.
One such trust owns a two-bedroom condominium in La Jolla, where Cindy McCain's aunt lives, according to the campaign.
In 2007, another family trust owned by Cindy McCain purchased a $700,000 condo in a Phoenix loft building, apparently for the McCains' adult daughter, Meghan.
The same trust bought a third Phoenix condo for $830,000 two months later.
You are like the village schoolmaster in the poem 'The Deserted Village' by Oliver Goldsmith:- "For e'en though vanquished, he could argue still."
Basically, the previous statement by Strongbow, which I agreed with, has already been completely vindicated. Several - i.e., more than two - FYM posters on various occasions stated their view that McCain had no chance against Obama, and this has already been proven.
Now, in addition to the two posters who have written off McCain's chance in the election itself, it is fairly clear that Anitram, though she may not have SPECIFICALLY stated that McCain made no chance against Obama, clearly wrote McCain off at a much earlier stage in the process (as did an awful lot of people, to be fair) which is why I find it rather surprising that Anitram would join the chorus demanding evidence of FYM's having written off McCain.
Are you familiar with the properties?
For their worth, their real estate portfolio if not very impressive at all.
And again, the McCains, ( especially John ) do not live an extravagant lifestyles at all.
He said that like yesterday - you were making these claims weeks ago, remember.
GAF is hardly a poster in FYM in any case. Talk about a drive-by post. So this is all?

Remember this:
I don't see that finding more then two FYM posters over the course of two years say a particular thing is particularly meaningful or suggesting of a general consensus.

"Does a guy who made more than $4 million last year, just got back from vacation on a private beach in Hawaii and bought his own million-dollar mansion with the help of a convicted felon really want to get into a debate about houses?
do you really want people to go around digging up your old quotes from 2006/7?
