SeattleUte has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Default Ed Rollins: can't have two rich guys on the ticket

So no Romney. Eight houses between president and VP is too many, Rollins says.

The potential damage of two "rich guys" on the Republican ticket is overplayed. Obama's "devastating" 7-house ad has had absolutely no impact.

In the meantime, we don't have to look far to find the last Democrat presidential candidate who married into fantastic wealth.

Meant to say twelve houses between the two.

Rollins wants Huck. Does Huck even have a house?

Does it rest in any one spot for more than six months of the year? Also, is it chained down?
