Why was Joe Lieberman standing next to McCain today?

Is it a show of crossing party lines, being non-partisan? 'Cause Joe's been a Republican for a few years now, so I don't think that's coming through.

Also, so most people even remember him from the last election? I'm not sure why Gore ever chose him as his running mate. I suppose it was for the northeast vote. Well, it didn't work.

And now Lieberman's supporting McCain. The world is a strange place when you're hanging on to you Senate seat for dear life. What will be do in four years when he's out to pasture?

Ugh, Joe. How did you let this happen to yourself?

Who the fuck is Joe the Plumber?

Who is this guy, and why do people give a damn? I mean, really? I think the news outlets spent $700B covering specious issues. Maybe they should've been the ones to pay off the bankers rather than Joe and the rest of us.

I blame McCain for bringing this guy into the fray, and to some (tho a lesser) extent, Obama for picking it up and directing part of his debate harangue at him. Why would he bite on such pandering? Not a tasty worm.

Speaking of worms, I have to complain about Palin today bringing his hypothetical wife Jane into the picture. I have to imagine this will go away in a few days. Hell, this whole nonsense goes away in a few weeks. I can't wait

Honestly, I care more for Mario and Luigi. Those guys represent the voter split - Mario, the Republican, Luigi the Democrat, both secretly Fascists. That's pretty close to the average Joe.
