Should he throw his wrench into the ring in 2012? He could sort of be like the new Alan Keyes.

I think he's old news now. McCain probably told him that he could be a White House plumber if he got elected.

I don't know if I'm the only one, but the 2nd chart in your signature (re: taxes) is illegible.

Maybe Joe could be the sacrificial lamb against Stickland in 2010.

He's the embodiment of the modern Republican party. An ignorant, arrogant, lying redneck who spews incomprehensible vitriol while having no understanding of real issues. So yes, I think he has a bright future ahead of him.

I'd much prefer Nick the Tile Liquidator than Joe the Plumber as my President.

Yeah, because alienating the middle-class have been a great election strategy for Democrats over the past few election cycles. Tongue

Joe's looking into running for I think OH-10, one of those solidly Dem districts.

Porn star.  The possibilities are limitless:

"Hey, I'm Joe the Plumber ... I'm here to help you with your ... plumbing."

"Joe!  I know you're not a fan of 'spreading the wealth' but all these girls want a piece of your Republican cock!"


Ohhh my.

What you call "alienating the middle-class" is what we call our victories in 2006 and 2008, I guess. The only way the Republicans can win is to pit the working and middle classes against the poor.

Congressional sacrificial lamb and then he'll probably write a book or something.
