The Most Famous Plumber In America

Joe Wurzelbacher is as surprised as anyone he was mentioned so prominently in Wednesday night's Presidential Debate

HOLLAND, Ohio (AP) - America's most famous plumber says he's
flabbergasted by all the attention coming his way after the final
presidential debate.
Joe Wurzelbacher said Thursday he started his day with an early
morning workout and came back to his home in suburban Toledo, Ohio,
to do live interviews with TV networks.
Reporters camped out by his house overnight and by midmorning
there were 21 people on his driveway, holding cameras and
notebooks.
Wurzelbacher said he was surprised that his name was mentioned
so many times as Barack Obama and John McCain argued over tax
policies during Wednesday night's debate.
"Joe the Plumber" said he thinks that Americans want to know
about real issues and probably aren't all that interested in him.
