Under the GOP's vote suppression strategy in Ohio, McCain's now famous icon could have had a hard time casting a ballot.

In a case that has now gone to the Supreme Court for review, Republicans in Ohio are challenging the registrations of all new voters whose names and other information do not exactly match those in government databases. It turns out that one of the present Ohio voters who could have fallen into this category is Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher -- or is it Worzelbacher? -- otherwise known as Joe the Plumber.

It would appear that Joe has made a fool out of himself with the help of McCain, while trying to trap Obama.

I wish people would grasp the idea and truth that Obam is not out to hurt anyone ore anything - he just wants to put America right again and make it, (once again) the greatest nation on earth - for all of us.

OBAMA-BIDEN

Forget about "Joe the plumber" He's a nobody from nowhere (just like the rest of us) and his fifteen minutes of fame are over. He's not worth the bandwidth.

Well, at least Obama did not disregard his concerns. He even told him that though Joe will not vote for him, he'll still work hard for people like him.

Te US Supreme court I believe tossed this today. So even though they have to have the ID and should carry other pieces of id stuff like utlility bills with them they might still be able to vote if newly registered. I hope the world can see what a third world county looks like in pieces of this US of A due to this kind of voter suppression.

How does McCain know anything about the conversation Obama had with "Joe the Plumber"?

Joe's a plant, who set Obama up for the Wednesday night debate. Once again, it's all image with

McCain, NO substance!

The records show he voted Republican?? That's a matter of record??

He voted in the republican primary. It's not on record who he voted for. Just if he voted.
