No Average Joe

The McCain campaign must have thought all their dreams had come true.



But this thread was just asking to be pulled.

1. "Joe" isn't his name. Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher just doesn't have the same ring.

2. "Joe" isn't a plumber. He doesn't have a Ohio state plumbers licence. In Toledo, his hometown, plumbers need a licence, even if they work for a company and only do residential work.

3. "Joe" owes the state of Ohio nearly $1,200 in unpaid income tax. The Ohio Department of Taxation has filed a claim on his property until he pays his debt.

4. "Joe's" current earnings don't even come close $250,000.
He would actually benefit from Obama's tax plans. What kind of a plumber earns $250,000?!

5. And..."Joe's" a registered Republican.

Perhaps John McCain should dismiss all his advisers, rather than joke about it.
