Is Joe the Plumber McCain's worst nightmare?

[RawAlex]

IT was McCain's only hope. He was going to use the Ayers thing, but the moderator handed that one to Obama as a softball and he hit it right out of the park and killed it.

Joe The Plumber is getting his 15 minutes of fame. Too bad it appears that he is a registered republican, which sort of makes him a plant, and too bad that the whole question of income is personal and not for a small business. Honestly, if the guy is making 250,000 profit from a plumbing business, a little more tax (say 1% or 2500 a year) isn't going to kill him, after all, that profit would be after he had paid himself a nice wage. So it isn't like suddenly Joe the Plumber is going to end up stopping the bottled water or replacing holiday cards with ecards or anything.
