He won the GOP primary for an Ohio house seat. But I hadn't heard a single mention of this guy's campaign or the election results. Four years ago, you couldn't turn on your TV without hearing both Obama and McCain dropping his name repeatedly.

Turns out it was real close, but he lost by about 73% to 23%.

Guess his ground game in Ohio sucked as much as Mittens' ground game sucked.

Or he needs to run in a CD that would be more friendly to Republicans.

Default Anyone remember Joe the Plumber?

Sure, I remember that guy. His name isn't Joe and he isn't a licensed plumber.

So, now he isn't a congressman, either.

Joe the Plumber. He never was a plumber- just a wannabe plumber, but he sure sucked the most out of his 15 minutes of fame. I guess he's living proof of just how far a dunce with a chip on his shoulder can go in the conservative political circles of the past 4 years. It seems all one has to do is holler loud enough and long enough and somehow he will end up being a leader of some teabaggers.

After Crazy Christine the Not Witch and that Nevada nut bag Sharon Angle were whopped good and proper, I would have thought that Joe would have learned his lesson back in 2008. I wonder if he'll ever pass the plumber's exam....
