Seriously?
SERIOUSLY?

According to a piece by the Center for Public Integrity, Romney owns four houses- a 3 million dollar one in Boston, a 10 million dollar one in New Hampshire, and a 12 million dollars on in La Jolla. Oh, and a ski lodge in Utah.
But more than that... well... look under the jump.
But there’s more: Romney’s real estate portfolio apparently puts to shame even McCain’s eight properties. According to the ex-gov’s financial disclosure forms filed when he was running for president, Romney holds an interest in 51 different properties through the Whitehall Real Estate Funds. These holdings include apartments in New York, hotels in Italy and Canada, and land in Thailand and France.
Look, we all know the "McCain has eight houses" storyline is petty and small of us, and we'd be pissed if they were using it on Obama. But it's also effective. Now how effective do you think its going to be if McCain picks Romney and all of a sudden the GOP ticket has over SIXTY pieces of real estate in its name?
Let's spread this around. If we can get this out into the ether around the time that McCain makes his pick (and even money says its the Mittster) that would be a real smack ahead of the convention.

The piece also looks at the holdings by Tim Pawlenty, Joe Lieberman and Tom Ridge... did you know Joe Lieberman's house in Washington is worth far more than his one in Connecticut? Shocking, I know...
Update: Jeez, lots of action already this morning. Thanks for checking it out. Let's see if we can spread this around a bit more before it gets (rightfully) buried in the Obama joy today!
