During last night's debate, Democratic pollster Stan Greenberg gathered 50 undecided voters in Denver, and Time magazine was there. Republicans and Independents outnumbered Democrats 4-1 in the group, but they still wound up breaking for Obama by more than a 2-1 margin.
According to the article, the undecided voters "audibly snickered" at McCain's repeated use of exaggerated facial expressions, as well as his overemphasis on "Joe the Plumber."
Incidentally, it is coming out today that Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher, aka "Joe the Plumber" is not a tax expert. ABC's Jake Tapper is reporting that Wurzelbacher would actually receive a tax cut, not a tax increase, were he to buy his plumbing business.
Also, one has to wonder why Wurzelbacher is so concerned with taxes in the first place when he apparently has trouble paying them. A filing with the Lucas County Court of Pleas says that Wurzelbacher had state tax liens filed against him in 2007, either for delinquency or a failure to pay in full.
Advice to McCain: no more cracks about plumbers.
*****UPDATE*****
Now he doesn't even have a plumbing license. I'm starting to feel sorry for this guy.
