We all remember the gaff that McCain had about how many homes he owns.  He could not give an accurate count.  And on the Tonite Show he used is stand by excuse for the gaff.  McCain tried to recover by citing his heroic service in the Navy during Vietnam and his more than five years as a POW, mostly in the jail called the “Hanoi Hilton.”

Ok I get it!  He was a POW but at some point that has got to become a real gaff in itself, using it as a stand by excuse for not knowing the answer to tough questions.  Pretty soon that sympathy path is gonna end and he will have to give real answers to tough questions.
