Who Are Joe the Plumber and Joe 6-Pack?
I know this is cynical; I can't help myself. In Joe's Katie Couric interview, not only did Joe Liken Obama to Sammy Davis Jr, but he also said he "talks real pretty", which to me certainly carries forward the McPalin sleaze rhetoric. And it also feels like it all plays into a continuing undercurrent of racism that has been been seen in the McPalin campaign of fear. I wonder if Joe and Joe 6-pack will come to represent one in the same.
And it was striking that McCain's palpable anger seemed to coincide with and result from Obama's refusal to say yes sir, you are right sir, I am sorry sir, for the Lewis "offense".





Joe the Plumber has just informed the world that he thinks of himself as a Southerner and not happy to be thought of as a "Yankee" in Ohio. What a surprise.
