Joe the Plumber: Mr. Clean

It is amazing that McCain and Palin are still going on and on about Joe the Plumber even though it has become a comedy punch line for the late night shows in the US. Did Joe the Plumber help their campaign? The jokes about it on the late night shows reveal that it has helped their ratings and that is about it.

Joe the Plumber can really help McCain and Palin by asking them to withdraw from the race. That will put them out of their misery because they do not have a hope in hell to win on Tuesday. McCain's flip-flops were bad enough that he needed to add Palin to his ticket. The other day Keith Olbermann of MSNBC was struggling to say something very funny about McCain and finally he came up with two words: Sarah Palin.

McCain is ready for the Smithsonian as an American relic but I do not think Sarah Palin and Joe the Plumber will qualify even for that distinction. However, Joe the Plumber's uncanny resemblance to the Mr. Clean character in commercials may give him an edge.

  2. Thanks. As I said before I wish you all the best. After this brief dialogue with you I sensed that deep down you’re a good person. Let that side of you steer your life. We all have our weaknesses and strengths. If we are able to recognize the differences and avoid the bitterness then we should be ok. As long as we all work for greater good it may turn out fine in the end. Sorry for being preachy. Thanks again for your comment.

    I do pictures for fun. Quite often they have serious message to them and other times just poking fun at life at the expense of political leaders and other public figures
