The All-Stunt McCain Campaign

What a bunch of blind fools. Joe the plumber was just a guy asking a retorical question about what would happen to someone making over 250K and he got exactly what was on Obama's mind--- "we're gonna spread the wealth, we're gonna give the guys behind you a chance too". Well, isnt that just dandy. He doesnt just want to redistribute wealth, he wants to redistribute income- and he's acusing McCain of calling him a socialist. What the hell is that then??? If this guy gets elected, we're done as a nation. I believe we should be converting to the Euro by the end of next year too. God help us.

Ah...my favorite stunt thus far, now we are supposed to listen to the infinite wisdom of Joe the Plumber. He has seriously joined John McCain on the campaign trail and feels he is qualified to talk about Obama's policies on Israel. It's amazing that John McCain still hasn't figured it out. It is simple, America is looking for competent, intelligent leadership and Joe the Plumber, Tim the Toolman, or Sam the Butcher aren't qualified!! God help us, if this circus show gets into the White House.

If McCain's campaign fails ( and as of to-day Dear Leader's lead is down to 2 pts) it will be because it limited its get out the vote efforts to actual people who are currently alive.
