Here’s a fun way to represent a political scandal. Blogger Jed Lewison of the Jed Report has created a video of a Google Earth Tour of John McCain’s many homes. How many? Well, McCain doesn’t know.

When asked by Politico reporters how many homes he owns, McCain answered, “I think — I’ll have my staff get to you,” he said. “It’s condominiums where — I’ll have them get to you.”

That’s right. John and Cindy McCain are so rich, they don’t even know what they own. This is the same guy who recently said that the “fundamentals of our economy are fine.” When you’ve got at least seven homes (maybe more!) worth over $14 million, well, yeah, the economy probably is doing okay for you.

Turn up your speakers and enjoy. (Or watch this Obama ad that capitalizes on the fury.)
