McCain mentioned Joe the Plumber something like 21 times during the debate. In fact, I felt like the whole thing was kind of a love letter from McCain to good old Joe. But who is Joe, really?
Joe Wurzelbacher, a.k.a. Joe the Plumber, is certainly making the rounds on
youtube right now. But did you know that he also made the rounds in the AWA, the WCWA, and the WWF? The screencap above doesn't do him justice: if you look closely at the video, you can see a man who's hunching over to speak to the 6'1" Obama, and is easily 3 times as wide.
That's right: he may have lost a little weight since his heyday, but it's clear that our own Joe the Plumber, in a previous career, was King Kong Bundy. Do you really think that frozen pipes could stand up to this man?
