Moments ago, while giving his stump speech at a campaign rally in Defiance, Ohio, Sen. John McCain apparently strayed from his prepared remarks, with hilarious results. Here’s what he said:
You know, we’ve learned more about Sen. Obama’s real goals for our country over the last two weeks than we learned over the last two years, and that’s only because Joe the Plumber asked him the right question right here in Ohio. [Cheering]
That’s when Sen. Obama revealed he wants to, quote, “spread the wealth around” — spread your income around.
Joe’s with us today. Joe where are you? Where is Joe? Is Joe here with us today? Joe, I thought you were here today. [Awkward pause]
All right. Well, you’re all Joe the Plumber, so all of you stand up! [Cheering] I thank you.
Wow. Nice save.
Actually, I’m only assuming McCain strayed from his prepared remarks. If his staff included a shout-out to Joe in his speech, without checking to make sure that he was, in fact, in the crowd, the campaign may be cracking up even more than previously thought. Is anyone over there even paying attention anymore?
Here’s the video:

The bad thing about Joe is that McCain's campaign is going to use him and then toss him aside. His life is over as he knows it. Keep an eye on Joe after the election. See what happens to him. Obama and McCain will do he same to you if you give them the chance. They both have their own set of special interests that they cater to and you are not one of them.

Maybe Joe has to work for his living? In order for Joe to eat, maybe Joe has to take on some plumbing jobs? You must be available for clients, completing the jobs, get paid for those jobs and I think that is how his business will grow to meet his dream of an income of $250,000/year.
Maybe that's why Joe wasn't there? Or maybe Joe is sick of being used as a campaign poster and lost income.
