McCain slips, almost credits ‘Joe the Bomber’ for rise in polls.»

During an interview with a local Norfolk, VA ABC affiliate last week, John McCain was asked why he was not beating Barack Obama in the state, considering Virginia has voted for a Republican president in every election since 1964. McCain replied that he is doing better in more recent polling and nearly cited “Joe the Bomber” as the reason. He quickly corrected himself, saying “h — Joe the Plumber”:

Q: ith Virginia a reliably red state dating all the way back to 1964, how come you’re not doing better in the polls in Virginia?

MCCAIN: We’re doing much better actually, there’s a poll out today that shows we’re within about three so we’re moving up and moving up fast. And look, Joe the Bomb — uh — Joe the Plumber turned the whole thing around.

Or "Joe the Bahh."

5. Seems McCain tells the truth when he doesn't mean to
1st - "my fellow prisoners"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYFm5kK4f1k


2nd - "Senator Obama's supporters have been saying some pretty nasty things about western Pennslavania. I couldn't agree with him more."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLVSURlFoQs

3rd - "Joe the bomb" He sure has been a bomb.

7. Joe the Plumber is a FRAUD
Jones-Kelley said the check was done after Wurzelbacher indicated that he was considering buying a business that would make $250,000 to $270,000 a year, but reports said he was not a licensed commercial plumber and had not completed a plumbing apprenticeship program.

But the county Wurzelbacher and his employer live in, Lucas County, requires plumbers to have licenses. Neither Wurzelbacher nor his employer are licensed there, said Cheryl Schimming of Lucas County Building Regulations, which handles plumber licenses in parts of the county outside Toledo.

KEX AM Joe the Plumber interview

Oregon has paid Wurzelbacher's taxes & license!

9. Huh??
Joe the Bomber turned the whole thing around?

Yeah, that's what I like to see in a presidential candidate. A guy who pegs his campaign to the incoherent ramblings of a skinhead.

10. "Moving up and moving up fast"?
Tomorrow is Election Day John!

Maybe he should just take today off. He can't possibly make it any worse.

12. John McCain is a total screwball with this goddamned Joe
the plumber shit. It's like the GOP is running three people for president, JTP, Palin, and McToast. Truly a f*cked up party.
