Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, acting as a surrogate for presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain during the Democratic convention, was ready for the question at a lunch with reporters Tuesday.

Amid all the controversy over McCain not knowing how many homes he owns personally, the multi-millionaire Romney was asked during the lunch how many homes he himself owns.

“One less than John Kerry,” Romney quipped, referring to the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee, the junior Massachusetts senator who is married to Teresa Heinz of the Heinz food fortune.

That would mean Romney owns four homes.

Asked whether the fact that he owns four homes might work against him being selected as a running mate for McCain, who owes at least seven homes, Romney said, “I’m not here to discuss (that).”

No homes to be found in the bottom of Mitt's ketchup bottle.

Someone prominent needs to step up and state that this talk about who owns what is not just breaking one of the Big Ten, it’s encouraging others to do so as well.

Slick Willard and John Kerry, there’s two liberal dirtbags that deserve each other.

It’s totally childish — class envy. I’m glad when others are successful and I want to follow their lead and want them to lead. When good things happen to people, I happy with them and vice versa. That’s the Christian way.

How many homes did Bill and Hillary Clinton own in their entire lives before becoming President.... ZERO

Mitt Romney coming on Cavuto in one minute. Mitt Romney always knows what to say.

[sevenbak]

Amen. It’s the American way. Work hard or marry well. The former with Mitt, the latter with MCain.

Is it just me, or is anyone else sick of this house competition?

Romney says he has “one less” homes than Kerry

I think it should be "one less home" or even "one fewer home". We all should have figured out singular and plural nouns in grade school.

comparing Kerry to Mitt, and no comment about their hair, you’re slipping, Both have better hair than Biden.

[GOP_Lady]

Indeed. And look how they led — by feeding off the public trough.

[Vigilanteman]

What's more, Mitt had to actually earn the money to buy his homes. Kerry just married it.

[Polybius]

McCain owns one house. All the rest belong to his wife, are in the name of his wife and were bought with the money of his wife.

Yes, McCain's wife is rich. So what?

How many houses did Carolyn Kennedy's stepfather own?

How many homes did Bill and Hillary Clinton own in their entire lives before becoming President.... ZERO

Maybe, but they stole enough furniture from the White House when they left to make up for it.

[Freedom_no_exceptions]

He has one less "homes"? How many "G's," "dawgs," "eses," "bros," or "playahhz"?

: )

[MrB]

Someone needs to put it in these terms:

Renounce the class envy,

or state you give no authority to the Ten Commandments.

Time to stop letting libs live in their gray moral area.

A quick question for you.

Do you have a macro that automatically alerts you to all Romney threads so you can just on board and start bashing?

[sevenbak]

That and some are investment properties. Its’ all a stupid ploy by the left media.

Make that “jump on board” . . .
