McCain’s Use of Joe the Plumber so Desperate that Obama Is Copying It

So if McCain’s reference to Joe the Plumber is desperation, what is this?

From a reader in Lynchburg, Virginia:

FYI—just a few moments ago I received an automated call at home from “Joe the Plumber” asking me to vote for O’Bama. He referred to the talk about Joe the Plumber in the debate—obviously trying to have me link “Joe Sellers (I think that’s the name), a plumber from Falls Church, Virginia” with the Joe the Plumber everyone is talking about. Easy to think ‘Hey, Joe the Plumber wants us to vote for O’Bama.’

Dishonest? Yes. But about what you’d expect out of Washington.

Sounds like desperation to me.

Just desperation from a different campaign than McCain’s.

  1. In Toledo, Ohio, where the REAL ‘joe the plumber’ is from, the robo calls started last week - except they used “John” the plumber.
