Joe the Plumber exposed one of Barack's key weaknesses, namely he is a leftist socialist who wants redistribute wealth. Joe the Biden exposed the other, Barack's inexperience and naivite puts the nation under threat of an attack to test President Obama. Biden even cedes that President Obama will fail the test as Biden says that "you" may not agree with President Obama's response to the crisis. Maybe Joe was thinking about something like this :

This race is still on so I am going to Vegas Baby this weekend as part of Team McCain's get out the vote effort there. Nevada is close. California is not. McCain can and needs to win Nevada. California is already a foregone conclusion for Obama. If I see another "hope" sticker I may scream. I do picture in my head a new slogan "Another Moron for Obama." I feel this election is really a referendum on where America is headed in profoundly different directions toward socialism or toward a society of self reliance. I am going because at the end of the day, I want to be able to tell myself and one day my kids that I did all I could in this fight and I may take in a show.
