Now, wouldn't that just be a kick in the ol' huevos for Obama, to see Joe The Plumber elected to Congress on the same day the country sends TheOne packing?
Joe made the mistake of confronting Himself during the 2008 campaign, and Oprah'sBoyChild did not appreciate actually having to have a conversation with an informed citizen. The Left and its shills in the press made Joe's life a living hell in the days that followed, even to the present day. His visit to Madison Wisconsin earlier this year was cut short by death threats from the union types.
Here's hoping Joe gets his revenge, in the old-fashioned way: Served cold, and at a distance. Here's hoping he and his family stay safe until that day.
OS will keep an eye out for Joe's campaign site, and that little ol' 'Donate' button.
It'll feel good to send money Joe's way, and serve up a little of that cold/distant souffle from Tennessee.

Joe The Plumber Visits Madison, Until The Threats On His Family From Wisconsin Send Him Home
What a great bunch, our friends at NEA and SEIU.
Sorta' wants to make one stand up and cheer, don't-cha-know?
Actually, Joe's account of his visit was remarkably fair-minded, not a knee-jerk reaction at all.
I went to Wisconsin with an open mind. I wanted to understand exactly what was going between the state and the unions, so I spoke with people on both sides of the issue. While I did so, I recorded our conversations so that the people watching my interviews can make up there own minds.
The first day there I spoke to some great guys who were Correction Officers. They do a tough, dangerous job day in and day out and they do not get thanked enough for the job they do. They are squared away, salt-of-the-earth men; guys I would want to go fishing with and throw back some beers. I honestly believe what they get paid is not near enough for the job they do. Their worries and concerns were genuine.
Steve, a CO in Wisconsin says, “I make 32,000 dollars a year before taxes. How am I suppose to afford the extra healthcare that my family needs”?
This guy’s pay has been frozen for 4 years. That doesn’t begin to seem right.
Then the ugly started...the threatening phone calls to his house, from Wisconsin.
Home again, file the police report, buy another gun, get another dog.
And, still, remarkably fair-minded at the end of the day.
It's a good read, and some good insight.
