McCain's Memory Problems re Houses: Elitism or Dementia?
I don't believe McCain's inability to remember the number of houses he has is a sign of elitism. When you look at the many other instances of McCain's forgetfulness, it appears more likely to be age-related memory loss.
He also couldn't remember what kind of car he drives:
He forgot that Iran is Shi'ite and al Qaeda is Sunni:
He forgot the borders of Pakistan and Iraq don't meet:
He forgot that Czechoslovakia hasn't existed since 1993:
Obama would get slammed for pointing out all the above but you have to wonder why nobody in the mainstream media is questioning his mental capacity. McCain can't remember details about his personal life and about the world stage. He's claimed he didn't say things he said just days earlier. At one point, when McCain contradicted his stated economic policy, a McCain spokesperson had to say that McCain doesn't speak for the McCain campaign. McCain appears to have significant memory problems. Is dementia next?

A few months ago, ABC had article about McCain's use of Ambien and possible side effects. Not a good thing.
(http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Politics/Story?id=4919842)
This raises a question that, I believe, must be asked. What other medications is McCain ingesting? Anyone know a source that has published this information?
It's also a fact, that if you track McCain's participation in the campaign, he takes most weekends off and at least one other day during the week to rest and regroup. POTUS doesn't have the option.
I've research signs of dementia and he sure seems to be displaying all the signs. Too scary.
(Someone also pointed out that there doesn't seem to be any release of data concerning his mental stability via tests done in physical examinations!)
