Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said in an interview Wednesday that he
was uncertain how many houses he and his wife, Cindy, own.
"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."

Granted, McCain has a lot of houses, but even the highest estimates
are like a dozen. That's not some ten-digit number like 1,537,993,625
(which anyone would have trouble remembering) where if you transpose
the five and the three it's a major misrepresentation.
Is McCain's memory really that poor, and if so, what does it say about
his ability to be president? Or is the number of houses he has such an
unimportant question to him that it's not worth remembering? That he
has a house everywhere he goes, so why bother singling them out to
remember?
Here's what Obama has to say about McCain's houses:
