McCain's Running mate

Trilby · 08-29-2008, 02:39 PM

Sorry, Lookout, for assuming you were a Republican. My bad. I guess I automatically think "republican" when I think "fiscally conservative", but that's family history stuff, so, no worries.

and, i was just trying to "be cute," as they say. His richness doesn't really bother me, hell, Cindy's the one with the dough. And as for "elitist", like Jon Stewart, I say, "hell YES I want somebody better than me to lead the country!" so elitism doesn't bother me overmuch. I want my prez to be educated in the finest schools, not embarrass our country whilst overseas, know things I've never even thought of...all that stuff. I just am on a McCain dump as I don't like his choice of running mate and I truly DO think he's out of touch.

I agree. I think he is out of touch. I also believe Obama is out of touch. I prefer McCain's decision to not pretend he's a middle class guy who knows what it's like to live paycheck to paycheck, worrying about the price at the pump. He's rich, admits he's rich but knows not everyone is and he knows they are the people who vote.

That's the point. The houses are actually owned by his wife. They are her investments. I don't think he knows because he could really care less.
