A blog about politics.

Tito and the Gang

A question on the lips of many campaigns watchers this weekend: "McCain is on a 'Joe the Plumber Tour.' Why is Joe the Plumber not with him?"

From reporters' lips to McCain's ears -- or someone's. Today in Leesberg, who introduced Sarah Palin but another "-o" the Job Description: Tito the Builder.

Joe need not worry about another small busines caricature taking his place in the heart of GOP candidates, however: He was much on the minds of everyone including -- during a sort of odd moment -- Palin's invocation of those who call themselves "JoeMomma."*

More later,

    You should really post the video of Tito the builder getting into a verbal altercation with David Corn the last time McCain was in VA. Its very entertaining AND it shows he doesnt have a clue. Its probably up on salon.com or at least it used to be. Corn promptly PWNED him and his buddies pretty good

  2. The McCain camp probably could not get Tito Jackson to stump for him.

  3. Yo mama's so fat she built a bridge to eclair.

  4. Somebody call Jacques Morali, they're getting the team back together!

  5. Yo mama's so fat she will be tested by international pastries. Mark my words.

  6. Yo mama's so fat I doubt she has a valid girth certificate.

  7. All the Tito, Sarah and Joe references bring me back to the kids' interest in "Bob the Builder", whose call to arms was "We We Can!" I like how that winds around and comes back to Obama.

    Hey Ana, how's the trip coming?

  8. Awesome, Ana the Blogger.

    Love me some good "yo mama" jokes.

  9. What about G. Gordo the Domestic Terrorist?

    It seems Stephen Colbert shares your thought patterns

  11. Does McCain not realize that he's only giving the critics who claim he just runs on cheap gimmicks and not substance whole belts of ammo?
    .
    I'm >< close to believing the "he's throwing the election to spite the GOP" tinfoil theory.

  12. How sad is it when John McCain has to hire people that are voting for Barack Obama to canvass for him? Wow

    Yo mama's so fat she thought WMD meant, "Where's My Donuts?"
    .

  16. As a momma named Jo, I object to the use of my favorite screenname in this fashion. You'll be hearing from Vinnie the attorney.

  17. Yes sg. No pattern I can see. Length maybe.

  18. nope it was short but had a url

  19. Length doesn't seem to do it. I posted a long cut and paste from a Dick Polman column over the week-end and there was no problem. Others that used words generally accessable to college prep high schoolers were held. Perhaps the bot doesn't have a very sophisticated dictionary.
    .

  20. Well, never mind. I just posted a short plain one that got put in limbo.

  21. im headed back to politico to do some troll whacking. cya

  22. yo mamma's so ugly she has to sneak up on her glass to get a drink of water

  23. Newsflash exclusive Times interview with "Teddy the Colonel."
