Maybe Joe the plumber was a plant by the McCain camp? Sounds like something they would do!

Joe is then subsequently interviewed, and says he supports McCain.

Since then, Joe has been accused of being a plant, linked to Keating 5, found to owe taxes and not have a license.

Instead, if he had stated he supports Obama, he would have been found to be a leader in his community, a boy scout leader, rescued a cat from a tree, a volunteer at a food bank, and have perfect dental records.

No media bias...what a crock.

Are you saying McCain supporters are all late on their taxes and all Obama supporters are model citizens?

I know this has been a rough election, but you're letting this effect your self esteem a little too much.
