ABC News will air a report Sunday in which Cindy McCain says she’s “offended by Barack Obama” and others who’ve criticized her husband for not knowing how many houses he owned.

CNN’s Political Ticker picked it up:

“I’m offended by Barack Obama saying that about my husband,” she told ABC News in an interview set to air Sunday. Asked if she thought Obama had gone too far in his criticism, she said “I do. I do. I really do.”

McCain — whose net worth has been estimated at around $100 million — said her father was a self-made man. “My father had nothing. He and my mother sold everything they had to raise $10,000,” she said. “I’m proud of what my dad and my mother did and what they built and left me. And I intend to carry their legacy as long as I can.”

As in selling beer? You’d think this was a subject best left alone.
