Sam-Joe is not a licensed plumber, and his dreams about making $250,000 a year are just dreams. It looks like McCain and his staff vetted Sam-Joe just as well as they vetted Sarah Palin. Both losers were huge mistakes for his campaign. Let all American now rejoice that McCain is not making similar choices for a White House staff or cabinet positions.
With choices like Sarah and Sam-Joe we can only be grateful that Obama is the one choosing the people who will get things done in this country for the next eight years.

Maybe Joe the Plumber was tired of being attacked by the other side and decided to jump ship.
It's immature. He was raking the dems over the coals for weeks. Saying things that even I was shocked to hear him say. He had enough of them digging through his personal life and probably struck a deal... "Hey dems, if I agree to slam McCain publicly... will you leave my private life alone?"
Edit: Do you know what I find so funny? That anyone is still even talking about "Joe the Plumber" after so many have whine and complained that he's a big nobody.

Because McCain worked hard on the bailout, which was full of pork. Then went on the campaign trail talking about how he wouldn't sign anything with pork in it, and would make famous anyone who tried to put pork in a bill.
Joe saw through the BS of the campaign, like most republicans did, including myself, but agreed less with Obama's rhetoric than McCain's rhetoric.

He just wised up to the campaign tactics, and realized he was just being "used"
