Joe The Plumber Ii

Again, to have McCain directly address Joe the Plumber by speaking into the camera is a great idea, from a campaign strategist's point of view. It's sort of a theoretical ideal, actually. Were I to run for office I would hire whoever dreamed up that concept.

The trouble is, you need a candidate who can speak in complete, linear, coherent sentences. McCain is not that candidate.
