Lying ass frauds are what GOPukes like everywhere, the more lies and crimes the more they are liked.

Since his name is not Joe and he is not a licensed plumber, he could be disqualified from the ballot if he ran under an assumed name.

She's a 10-term incumbent who won her last election with 74% of the vote. Thanks to redistricting and having been combined into one district, she just defeated Dennis Kucinich (!!!) in the Democratic primary by a vote of 56%-40%.

Joe the Plumber doesn't stand a chance against her and he will not be elected to the House. Don't sweat it.

that the GOP establish thinks he is an idiot...a useful idiot but an idiot nonetheless?

I remember when he was "reporter" for some psycho right-wing media outlet he said that reporters should NOT be allowed in war zones and that the government should censure any news reports regarding the progress of a conflict.

He is awesome.

It's a solid-D district; he doesn't have a prayer.

(nb this was discussed back during the Ohio Primary).
