And here's Joe's website, so you don't have to wait for the book. You can visit for free or get a membership.

Its pretty empty so far but he promises Version 2 soon.

He said he's not cashing in :confused: I guess he thinks this isn't cashing in? :rolleyes:
Wonder how many members he'll get on the website. And who'll buy his book.
When his message board goes up maybe we'll all go over there.:beer:

hopefully mccain and palin will buy a few thousand books after what all they did to this man - jmho

[LisaM22]

wonder if mccain came through on the lucrative contract he said he was going to offer joe to work on all his many houses?

LOL good for him. Capitalism does work!!! Let's hope it never dies.

I wonder what if any real impact Joe/Sam had on the campaign. I found him even less compelling than the "couple of mavericks" shtick.

The interesting thing about Joe to me is the phenomenon of celebrity creation in the US. The combination of our media, marketing, and internet can make someone at least temporarily famous literally overnight.
I was raised with National Enquirer in the bathroom so I attracted to the news about Paris, Nicole, and all the others in spite of myself. I know Joe thinks he's a political celebrity, but I think he's more in the Why? category.

This was my reaction when I heard this: barf barf

Well, look at it his way, in a shoer time, he will have your nickname!:biggrin:

JOE THE PLUMBER BOOK



I thought it was a coloring book.


Good riddance.

Maybe it will be bundled with Sarah's book in time for Christmas. But I bet Joe didn't get anywhere near $7 million.
