Joe to run for Congress?

This would be interesting--he's obviously not cowed by the media. http://briefingroom.thehill.com/2008/10/24/joe-the-plumber-says-hes-mulling-run-for-congress/

His fifteen minutes haven't expired yet?

I think Joe will make a great footman in the coming break-through economy.

I foresee "Joe the Plumber" nostalgia pervading Northwest Ohio in two years. He's a shoe-in.

Maybe someone should take the phrase "Joe the Plumber" and have it trade-marked.

Then if he tries to use this phrase in his campaign materials, he could be facing some legal problems.

Yeah because shutting down the little guy is what you're all about.

Change.

If he can articulate ideas and execute strategies to achieve those, I say ... Go for it.

More entertainment...

Marcy has been womping on the little guys all these years... I think that's her M.O. You can ask her.

And what's wrong with Brad Leavitt? He is a steelworker who lost his job to foreign competition and had to move to the Toledo area. A former member of the Navy. Family guy.

He's more average American than Joe unlicensed plumber's crack.

Very true. It would be interesting to see the stats on how much capital Marcy Captur's efforts have diverted from business payrolls to government payrolls.

I don't know many little guys that live on government payrolls.
