Nope I love Bob, but he is 100% wrong. Watch the video I linked in the post above. Joe CLEARLY states he isn't the biz owner. He says he may buy the business he works from off his boss.

Sticky, I know, I have seen the whole thing. That is the part that is false. In fact Joe has since admitted that he is no where near "getting ready" to buy anything and that owning his bosses business is "a dream" (exact quote from the show Huckabee on Fox). He used "getting ready to..." as subterfuge, again since he would have not had a leg to stand on if he had just been clear and truthful (clear and truthful = "I make 40k but I have a dream to own my bosses business which makes $250k one day.").
Joe is against Obama, but it ain't because of taxes, it cannot possibly be since he'll save under Obama's plan and isn't anywhere near "getting ready" to buy anything nor make $250k+.
I don't necessarily agree with Obama's plans part about raising taxes on the rich. I understand that it's not so much as a tax hike as it is setting the rates back to where they were before Bush cut them. I can appreciate Obama's ambition to help out middle class people like Joe who are suffering under the current climate.
Fact is there are many subtle and sometimes maybe dark and not so politically correct reasons that people have to vote for each candidate that go unspoken. If you read between the lines, this whole "Joe the Plumber" situation illustrates that well and not much else.
