McCain is losing it, folks. From the New York Times today:
[Referring to Joe the Plumber]
“Joe’s with us today!” Mr. McCain shouted at a cold outdoor rally at Defiance Junior High School. “Joe, where are you? Where is Joe? Is Joe here with us today?”
Nothing.
“Joe, I thought you were here today,” Mr. McCain continued, with dimmed enthusiasm.
Still nothing. The crowd murmured.
“All right,” Mr. McCain said, realizing that Joe was nowhere to be found. “Well, you’re all the Joe the Plumbers!”
