Flailing furiously after their candidate's ridiculously elitist gaffe today, the McCain camp goes into the lie volcano:

"'Does a guy who made more than $4 million last year, just got back from vacation on a private beach in Hawaii and bought his own million-dollar mansion with the help of a convicted felon really want to get into a debate about houses?'"

Hawaii has no private beaches. Obama, who was born in Hawaii and spent most of his youth there, visited relatives during his vacation and joined members of the public swimming and surfing in the ocean.

You see, real estate magnates like John McCain are used to swimming in private beaches and hot tubs behind their high fences, they wouldn't dare to swim in a pool where the ... horrors ... public swims. Sen. Obama has no such concerns, however.

More detail here. And Sen. Obama bought the land from Rezko for more than the appraised value.
