Now we have Joe the Plumber NFL linebackers

This seems to be the year of the lost cause for Rocky Boiman.
First he works door-to-door for a Republican Congressional candidate in Ohio. In a year when Democrats take over the presidency and solidify their hold on the House and Senate, his man is voted out of office.

"I want to go into politics," he said.

If he ever does run for office, it will be as a Republican.

"I guess it's kind of how you're raised." he said. "I was raised in a middle class kind of situation. My dad got laid off when I was young and he fought his way out of it. I'm pro the American dream of capitalism, that you can become whatever you want. My dad has made a lot of himself without ever asking for a handout. I have that same philosophy."

Is it a prerequisite that one must be ignorant to be a republican?

Sure, dude. Your dad didn't have to ask for it because it was probably given to him thanks to the safety net that Republicans want to dismantle, and it kept your family from starving.

Ignorant barely begins to describe this fool.

and believes the balboa story is non fiction.:banghead: What did his dad make alot of himself as?

Former AZ college football player who went pro. Came from a Dem family but became a Repuke because they taxed his NFL paycheck too much. :nopity: He ran in the primary as a "moderate" (pro-cheap labor Chamber of Commerce plant) vs. the wingnut incumbent who ran on a platform of xenophobia. He got smoked in the election but he also got the joy of having his signs defaced with racist graffiti (he's black).
