When Sen. John McCain is in Washington, he lives in a luxury high-rise condominium in Arlington, Va., owned by his wife, Cindy McCain also owns their condos in Phoenix, San Diego and Coronado, Calif., and their vacation compound near Sedona, Ariz. And the beer business Hensley & Co., which she inherited from her father, is the source of the McCain family fortune.

with the money in Cindy McCain's name, as dictated by a prenuptial agreement, the senator's finances are more difficult to assess than those of many other candidates.


Senate rules do not require spouses to specify the values of assets or income sources exceeding $1 million, and Cindy McCain has many of them,


Cindy McCain owns They include the condominium in the Crystal City section of Arlington; two in an oceanfront tower in Coronado; her father's condo in the La Jolla section of San Diego; a $4.7 million condo atop one of Phoenix's newest luxury towers; another unit on its fourth floor; and a $700,000 townhouse nearby.

Then there are Cindy McCain's vacation homes outside Sedona. In 1985, a Hensley entity bought the first, in a secluded enclave along a creek and down a steep road from the plateau of the Coconino National Forest. In 1996, Cindy McCain bought an adjacent home for $750,000.

ok quick, without looking; how many homes is that?
