McCain would be the first U.S. president to have signed a prenuptial agreement

Trailhead: A campaign blog (4/18/08)

John McCain's released two years of tax returns today to little fanfare. We learn that he earned $405,000
in 2007. We learn that he's giving his ex-wife $17,000 a year in alimony. What we don't learn, though, is
how much he's getting from his current wife. That's because the returns don't include the assets of Cindy
McCain, whose beer fortune is estimated at more than $100 million - a reminder that McCain would be
the first president to have signed a prenuptial agreement.

3. Cindy has McCain over a barrel.

How does that work for blackmail and leverage?

7. At this point, she has too much invested in her public persona of...

...perfect American wife and mother to have much real power over him. She wants the White House as much as, or maybe even more than, he does.

6. Roosevelt's mother controlled the money even when he

was president. I believe it was her house that he lived in.

8. what a cheapskate

He makes over $400K/year and the crippled ex that he abandoned only gets $17K? Stingy scum.

9. If Cindy doesn't trust him why should the American people?
