McCain is on Joe the Plumber's Side

At a rally in Miami today John McCain stood up for Joe the Plumber after Joe Biden sneered, "I don't have any Joe the Plumbers in my neighborhood who make $250,000 a year and are worried." (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/10/17/mccain_stands_up_for_joe_html):

The response from Senator Obama and his campaign yesterday was to attack Joe. People are digging through his personal life and he has TV crews camped out in front of his house. He didn't ask for Senator Obama to come to his house. He wasn't recruited or prompted by our campaign. He just asked a question. And Americans ought to be able to ask Senator Obama tough questions without being smeared and targeted with political attacks.

Right on, John!!! It couldn't have been said any better.
