CNN'S Rick Sanchez owns "Joe the Plumber" in an interview
"Joe the Plumber, in his last media tour of (one can hope) this election cycle, took to CNN this afternoon to make the case for his candidate John McCain. Only things didn't exactly go as planned. Host Rick Sanchez began asking a whole host of questions on sensitive topics like: Why don't you have a plumber's license? Why haven't you paid your taxes? Why is a hospital in South Carolina asking you for $1,100 in payments? And why does someone making far less than $250,000 have a problem with taxes being raised on those in the top income brackets?

Joe, not surprisingly, was none too pleased with having the grilling turned on him. "You're asking me all these insane questions," he said,"

I loved when he starts complaining about MSM not vetting Obama.
And when he gets called on the fact that he's thrust himself into this spotlight.

Joe was a joke. He kept calling him "brother" - I got the feeling he wanted to use another word.

Just another reason for me to love Rick Sanchez. He asks real questions.

Please do not "green" me. I'm suffering from sweeper burnout and just don't want to enter

Thankfully after tonight no one will want to interview him again.

I believe Palin is vetting him for her VP selection.

I hear there are already plans in the works to team him up with Sarah for the 2012 run for Pres/VP. I can't wait.
