Does Joe the plumber sound a little racist to you?

He said the following in an iterview:

“You know, I’ve always wanted to ask one of these guys a question and really corner them and get them to answer a question,” he said, “for once instead of tap dancing around it. And unfortunately I asked the question, but I still got a tap dance.”

He added, “Almost as good as Sammy Davis Jr.”

What do you think?

    A little racist???? A little???

    Joe the Plumber is as racist as they come. McCain chose the wrong example of a hardworking American. He struck out again!

    A hardworking American plays by the rules and Joe the Plumber doesn't play by the rules. He probably earns a lot of cash on "side-jobs" and doesn't report most of his income.

    I am very familliar with the areaof Ohio this guy lives in. It's a very blue collar area with a klan presence, they had klan race riots a couple of years ago.

    Joe, is the picture of a blue collar meat and potatoes white guy. This is not saying he is racist but I am guessing when he is sitting in front of his TV at night drinking beer with his buddies and watching the game, they are not practicing verbal judo. Now you take that however you want to.

    It's a classic racist remark, as bald as they come. It's not even original.
