3. And the thing is, the guy is a fraud

Every thinking person knew that, but the campaign kept throwing him out there. Stupid, stupid McCain.

4. i keep thinking of the debate and McCain's "Joe, your rich, congratulations"

6. did you read the Newsweek piece

that explained how Lindsey Graham and McCain couldn't sleep, so Lindsey "stumbled to McCain's hotel room", and McCain mentioned something about Joe the plumber, and Lindey and Cindy McCain said "What?? Joe the plumber? BRILLIANT!" So the plot was hatched by Cindy, Lindsey and McCain to bring it up into the debate...what idiots!

10. Then it got better...

they turned McCain's embarrassing improv into their mantra

we got a robo-call that said "Hi my name is Ann and I am Joe the plumber...
