Joe the Plumber

Today, at reuters.com, Joe the Plumber was brought up, AGAIN! Wednesday, at the last Presidential debate, Joe Wurzelbacher was brought up more than 2 dozen times. Joe Wurzelbacher is a normal guy from Holland, Ohio that decided to ask Barrack Obama about his process of taxing Americans. McCain says that the democratic party is punishing Joe the Plumber for asking a legitimate question. Obama then responded by criticizing McCain's policy of Medicare or Health Care.

I can understand why Joe the Plumber was brought up but I don't understand it was brought up so many times. McCain does make a good point that it was just a simple question that the democratic party is flipping out over. Maybe it just took someone like Joe to put fear in Obama's eyes, because I don't think McCain was at all. Obama and the rest of democratic party have something to worry about. Many people have been talking about this, even SNL. They had a very funny skit about the 3rd and final debate with Joe the Plumber. I feel that this subject will be talked about for awhile. I hope this makes the election even more heated and interesting to watch and wait.
