Are you as sick of Joe the Plumber as I am? It's not just the fact that Joe himself was something of a fraud, and quite possibly a John McCain plant. No, it's just the infantile, ridiculous sound of it. Joe the Plumber. And now, at rallies, Sarah Palin and John McCain are christening everybody with a name like that. Paul the Grocery Bagger. Angie the Drive-thru Window Worker. Tracey the Turnip Twaddler. I mean c'mon.
Barack Obama has a tax calculator on his web site that lets you figure out which campaign would save you the most in taxes. And Obama--perhaps sensing the silliness of all of this blue-collar pandering--chose the ultimate blue-collar hero for his ad: Ed O'Neill, aka Al Bundy! Perfect! But I wish he would've hollered for Peg!
