That would be 13. Newsweek did a search of public records and discovered that in addition to Cindy's vanity-plated Lexus and McCain's Cadillac: There's a 2005 Volkswagen convertible in the garage along with a 2001 Honda sedan. Otherwise, there's a 2007 half-ton Ford pickup truck, which might come in handy on the Sedona ranch; a vintage 1960 Willys Jeep; a 2008 Jeep Wrangler; a 2000 Lincoln; and a 2001 GMC SUV. The McCains also own three 2000 NEV Gem electric vehicles, which are bubble-shaped cars popular in retirement communities.
The Obama's have one car, a 2008 Ford Escape hybrid they bought last year to replace a gas-inefficient Chrysler 300C.

1. Does it really matter how many cars he has ? really - can we just get on with facts or has the left gone so far, you dont know where you are at. It would be great if we could stick to facts, less attacks on McCain/Palin and wake up from the Obama-pixie-dust which has killed so many brain cells.

3. And your point is? How does this have anything to do with anything important? My gosh woman...get some rest and try thinking of something interesting to blog about, or give it up altogether!

4. why does it matter? i don't want a president who is like me, i want a president who is better than me. i don't care if he is rich, who cares what he spends his money on. if you had his money wouldn't you spend it or would you hide it and pretend to be poor? i'll vote for obama only if he gets rid of all the corrupt public housing, section 8 and overhauls welfare.

10. I'd say this is probably a good example of why this blog is going bye-bye.
Ummm... who cares?
Thirteen cars, eh? Well I have, let see... considering my work truck, car, wife's, kids'... I have six cars. I also have two motorcycles (just sold a third,) a wave runner (traded a pontoon boat for it,) a riding lawnmower, a couple of bicycles, an old skateboard, and an even older surfboard.
Know what they ALL have in common? I WORKED for 'em.
Here's a look at what Jay Leno has in his garage:

He worked for them, as well.
As weird as it may sound: Cindy McCain races cars. So does one of their children, I believe.
She's very rich, I hear. She also owns quite a bit of property - which was the let's-paint-the-McCains-as-ultra-rich-elitists buzzword of last week. She and her family worked for that money.
But... you know what? I hear they exploited the masses for it. Ya know how? Come closer....
They did it by forcing all of you to buy beer.
Get on a REAL issue ya polititards.

11. If you have 8 residences, you tend to keep a car at every residence. A friend of the family lived in Washington. She inherited everything of her parents after they both died, including their house in Chicago and their Cadillac.
Since she travelled regularly to Chicago for business, she kept the house and the car.
Meanwhile, in her garage in Washington was a late model coupe and the Austin-Healy that she bought upon graduation from college.
So, a single woman had 3 cars.

12. I saw a film of sarah palin and her witch doctor from kenya today. He was demanding god make a way to power for her and guard her against witches while a couple of his witch doctorin' and preachin' assistants held sarah in place or comforted her or something.
Sarah had her eyes shut but you could see her anyway...
I was trying to Imagine Joe Biden standing there with a kenyan witch doctor laying on his hands and keeping him safe from witches. Biden looked up in mid imaginate and started convulsing in laughter.
I blanked him before he could flip me the bird.
Then I tried Hilary. Still no luck. Hildawg groin kicked the witch doctor when he laid his jondekonkeroo squeezin' wictch doctorin' hands on the candidatory booty
Abe Lincoln? Worse! don't ask..
Bill Clinton? nope, he just morphed into Phil Hartmann and hit on jan hooks.
I tried barack but his brother george showed up instead and asked for three fitty to move out of the witch doctor's neighborhood. He wanted to know if I had a van sinced that indian dude was supposed to help him move but no showed last saturday
I was afraid to try johnny pissoff. He might have gone all Hanoi and given away the bus arrival and departure times from Wasilla in exchange for hospitalization and a mooseburger.
Well, no matter how you slice it, it didn't seem to fit anyone but sarah. Well, dionne warwicke and her psychic friends, maybe, but hell, I thought Nancy Reagan's horoscope addiction was too exotic.
