Why the Image of McCain and Joe the Plumber Won’t Help His Campaign!

Apparently, John McCain’s decision in last night’s debate to stop talking about “his friends” and focus on one particular friend named “Joe the Plumber” may turn out to be just one more in a long line of stunts by the McCain-Palin Stunt # 5 campaign.

Looks like the real life Joe the Plumber may turn out to be: a) not a licensed plumber, b) a registered Republican and McCain supporter, c) a tax cheat, and possibly even d) a relative of Charles Keating!

Who knows whether these things are true, but clearly he’s now out there citing McCain talking points, so the contrived nature of McCain’s fixation on him during the debate seems to suggest he was a plant. A gimmick! A stunt worthy of David Blaine, and not of a candidate running for President of the United States!

McCain is going to go down in history as one of the most pathetic losers ever to represent a major any party in a presidential campaign. Even Ralph Nader is starting to look like a realist compared to this dumbass!
