Poll question: Does McPOW Own More Houses Than You Own Pairs Of Shoes?

Question inspired by:

http://www.americablog.com/2008/08/john-mccains-family-owns-more-homes.html

For my part, I only have 4 pairs of shoes. So McPOW owns more houses than I do shoes.




EDIT: Screwed up the 'yes' answer.

[WeDidIt]

1. Yes for me, no for my wife.

[BlooInBloo]

3. Yah - I figured there would be a certain amount of gender-difference for this.

[WeDidIt]

5. My wife would be considered as bad as Emelda Marcos

except for the fact that she loves shoe sales, not incredibly expensive shoes.

28. ditto.....n/t

2. Gee,I only have 2 pairs of shoes...

One for summer and the other is more like light short boots for winter.

[dkf]

4. I have no idea...guess I have to count them.

:rofl:

[billyoc]

6. Shoes, hell, SOCKS!

:rofl:

[DesertFlower]

7. i can't even count the number

of shoes i have. i know i have at least 18 pairs of birkenstocks. they don't wear out and they don't go out of style.

[BklynChick]

8. no way, I love shoes.

[Heather MC]

9. I think I have 20 pairs of the perfect black boots alone

Not to mention the perfect black pumps
the wedges, flipflops, at least 2 pair of pool shoes, you have to look long and hard for highheeled pool shoes, an absolute must

You can never have too many strappy sandels
and tennis shoes so you can wear comfy shoes while you shop for more shoes

10. Counting flip flops, hehe

I own the same amount of shoes as he does houses. Three dress, two tennies, one slippers, one flip flops.

[rox63]

11. Do slippers really count?

You can't really wear them out of the house. So I wouldn't count them.

[sandnsea]

12. I wear them out to get the mail

:shrug:

I just wanted it to be known that I can remember all of my shoes and how to count them, even if I can't remember much of anything else. It's sad that McCain can't remember something as big as a house. Tsk tsk.

[BlooInBloo]

14. Good point.

[dkf]

15. If that is all it takes to have more shoes than McCain has houses then I must be in the "over"

category.

[rzemanfl]

13. Do sandals and such count? n/t

[JohnnyLib2]

16. Yes, and my wife complains about my boring few.

Hmmmm, maybe SHE could store some at one of my friend John's places?

[boobooday]

17. I don't know -- I'll check with my staff and get back to you

If I ever get a staff.

[Upton]

18. What about moccasins

are they considered shoes? I've got two pairs of those and...well anyway, McSame has definitely got more houses.

[zbdent]

19. Wait a minute ... that depends ...

is there a final count on his houses?

If you're counting the shoes that I use to do yard work in, then I MIGHT pull even with McClame ... barely ...

[BlooInBloo]

21. The most I've seen is 12.

[MANative]

20. I definitely have more shoes that McSame has houses...

but I have a good excuse. In addition to being female (the natural excuse for lots of shoes), I happened to work for a nationally known women's footwear company for 6 years, and got my shoes for next to nothing - like 80+% off at the corporate sample store. Loved that job.... ;)

[Piperay]

22. No way

I probably got more shoes dozens of times over than he has houses. :-)

[rebel with a cause]

23. My feet are too big and messed up to have very many shoes.

too hard to find!

[treestar]

24. Signing in as relatively shoeless

And none of mine cost anywhere near $520!

[Beausoir]

26. I own WAYY more shoes than McCain has houses. They are OLD shoes, too!

I just can't let go of the old shoes.

I never wear them, but I always think that someday I will.

Why throw away perfectly good but old shoes?

[mythyc]

27. K&R: What a great poll topic to put things in perspective. this one should stay up top.....

i own 4 pairs of shoes, and some work boots....

:dem:

[JonLP24]

29. I can't vote yet.... I'll have to get with my staff and then

I'll be able to say yes or no.

[MrSlayer]

30. Indeed he does.

I have one pair of sneakers, one pair of work boots and one pair of "dress" shoes for banquets, weddings and funerals.

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

31. sadly, yes. And at least I know how many shoes and house I have

he sure does.

[Kahuna]

32. Uhhh.. I bought more than seven pairs of shoes this summer. nt

[depakid]

33. Never thought about it that way- but yeah, he does!

And that's including 2 pairs of fins, river shoes and climbing boots!
