    An earlier article showed how bad they are at managing personal wealth
    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25154267/

    Do we really wish to hand the keys of the treasury to this folks given the choice of Barack an obviously shrewed money (and might I add campaign organization) manager.

    The statement on no underrstanding economics at this point should be taken for what it is: the truth right from the source.

    And McCain and Hilliary called Senator Obama an elitist?? McCain, especially, is a hypocrite!! SEVEN (7) homes??? Where are ALL THESE HOUSES?? WOW!! OH, and John uses Cindi's COMPANY PLANE to fly everywhere to campaign!! Is that legal??? Everybody else has to pay for their plane or charter it. Remember, Cindi owns the beer company, according to McCain, and he has nothing to do with "the business". He might not have anything to do with the business, but he sure does not hesitate to use the company plane. Like I asked, is this legal?? HE IS USING THE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE COMPANY'S PLANE TO PROMOTE HIS CANDIDACY. FOR THE PRESIDENCY!!! HOW EVIS IS THIS?? Wonder how many DWIs they have contributed to?? Wonder how many fatal accidents they have contributed to?? NOPE, McCain has no busness running for President!! Would Cindi run her BEER business out of the First Lady's parlor in OUR White House??

    Doesn't the tax rate seem rather low for 4 years and beach property (value at what).

    Bet if it was you or me the property would have been sold by now for taxes.

    No excuse for not paying property taxes, and John McCain wants to run a whole Country and super rich people like the McCain's can't even remember that they do have to pay property taxes like everybody else that owns property, not ignore it for four years and get away with it, we don't need someone that irresponsible to run a Country thats in the mess this Country is in right now, thanks to GWB, John McSAME would be another GWB he needs to be in a home for the elderly, GRANDPA can't manage a whole Country, he can't manage Seven Expensive Homes he owns with his wife the "Snob" Cindy McCain
    Her response to a reporter asking her about not paying her taxes on this one property, A simple GRIN, and her response: Oh, My Bad!
    Such a snobie response, REPULSIVE!!!

    What is it about Newsweek that causes then to pick on an elderly aunt of Mrs McCain in a house administered by a TRUST, not the McCains?
    The next thing you know, Olbermann will be calling the old woman the "Worst Person in the World".

      Since Cindy's Aunt was not responsible for the property taxes (something typically taken care of by the property owner), your comment is irrelevant

    Mccain doesn't bother paying taxes because he and his wife own so much they can't keep their assets straight. He doesn't even know how much gas costs....I don't know what made the Republicans think they could win in a year already stacked against them by nominating an out-of-touch, loose cannon 72-year old whose wife has a penchant for painkillers.

    The reason the tax bills were returned is that the McCains failed to keep their address current as they are required to do by the county. This is a pretty lame excuse for not paying the taxes due.

    County records show the bills, which were mailed to a Phoenix address associated with Mrs. McCain's trust, were returned by the post office.The bank that manages the trust has not been receiving tax bills on the property.

    John McCain profits from the sale of malt liquor to poor black people.

    Thank you, Newsweek, for doing your homework. It seems like in the mainstream press, McCain doesn't face nearly the same scrutiny over his personal life as Obama does. I am usually one who doesn't want to hear about drama in the personal lives of our candidates, but it has been so lop-sided. We need to look at both candidates very clearly in this election.

    I guess they thought Taxes are for the little people, I thought this guy was a grown up.

    Seems there are quite a number of unanswered questions about McCain's finances. Trying to separate himself from his wife's business dealings, while enjoying the all of the trappings of her wealth is slick indeed. Could it be that this shell game of his is really meant to hide other questionable dealings?

    I'll make a donation toward Cindy McCain's tax bill if I can use the La Jolla Shores home to host an Obama fundraising party!
    It's a shame all these nice homes go unoccupied, just sitting there for when the ultra-rich decide to jet in for a weekend....I'd say that's ELITIST!!!

The Obamas, on the other hand, are a young couple who could only recently afford to pay off their college loans and buy a home. Regular middle class folks!

    Why don't they just grab the money from the John and Cindy McCain Foundation? You know, the charitable organization Cindy chairs that they used to pay out $500,000 to their kids private schools when supposedly funding the clearing of landmines and craniofacial research. Charity abuse seems a running theme at the McCain houses.
