Does Joe the Dumber even realize that McCain is using him as a stunt?
We all know Joe is not really all that bright, but I wonder if he has the ability to know when he's being used like a cheap rag.

14. I think that describes crass conservatism to a "T."

If at all possible make money off any and all situations: good or bad.

6. He Knows
But he figured he can get something from it, and so far he's right!

I guess that plumber's license and buying his own business will have to wait until his book/country singing/political aspirations have been fulfilled.

8. They are both using each other and will never speak again after Monday.
McCain is using him as a prop and Mr. Wurlitzerburger is trying to cash in.

He better hurry though because his newfound celebrity will vanich in about 72 hours.

9. He does not care - he is now news, pulled from obscurity
He was just a semi-plumber dreaming of owning a company someday. Now kids are wearing Halloween costumes like him and he has a publicist.

12. He knows, all right. He knows and doesn't care. Because he's a scab, and that's what scabs do.

13. His discussion with Obama was totally disingenous and he is reveling in his 15 minutes. Screw him.
