Sigh. It's sad that pointing to someone's wealth is actually a method of political attack which works on some people.
An amusing campaign considering the Bush estate.

WASHINGTON - A conservative group headed by one of former President Clinton (news - web sites)'s harshest critics is airing an ad that pokes fun at presumptive Democratic nominee John Kerry (news - web sites)'s haircut, designer clothing and property holdings. "
...
"The ad shows Kerry, boats at a marina and oceanfront property as an announcers says: "Massachusetts Senator John Kerry. Hairstyle by Christophe's $75. Designer shirts: $250. Forty-two foot luxury yacht: $1 million. Four lavish mansions and beachfront estate: Over $30 million."
Another shot is of Kerry and Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., with the words: "Another rich, liberal elitist from Massachusetts who claims he's a man of the people. Priceless."
