The McCains are hypocrites, who knew?

Cindy McCain is offended that Obama and the Democrats are attacking her and Johnny boy's wealth? Give me break!
Cindy McCain doesn't like the Democrats attacking her husband over his confusion as to how many homes they own. She doesn't like, seemingly distracting, attacks that detract form the issues. Well, Cindy there are two problems with your argument.
First, your wealth is an issue when our economy is floundering and the gap between the rich and the middle class is the largest since the great depression. Average Americans are disgusted with McCain's obliviousness regarding the state of our economy. It is a reflection of how out of touch he is and his unwillingness to even admit that there is a problem.
Second, the McCain campaign has done nothing but distract from the real issues during this campaign. What relevance (or substance) does the celebrity claim have? Obama worked hard to get where he is. He came from modest roots and rose through his will and determination to graduate from the best schools in the country. He fought for average Americans instead of working as a corporate lawyer. His sharp mind and willingness to reason with his opponents allowed him to rise in the Illinois state legislature and eventually Congress. Belittling his success by calling him a celebrity is offensive. Cindy McCain, the same kind of self-absorbed hypocrite as her husband.
When will the McCain's stop insulting our intelligence and just go away?
