Ok, so as much as it pains me to perpetuate this guy's 15 minutes of fame, I have to point out the absurdity of it all. "Joe" the "Plumber" (Actually Samuel the guy who doesn't have his plumbing license) was a nobody until John McCain mentioned him over and over and over again in the final debate.
So did this guy take his 15 minutes with grace and then go back to his quiet Toledo life? Certainly not. Despite the fact that this guy is in no way qualified, he's announced that he would like to run against Marcy Kaptur for Ohio's 9th district and he's hired a Nashville publicist. Why would a guy who's 15 minutes should have long run out hire a publicist? Apparently he's planning on starting a country music career. And lastly, for some reason, he's out on the campaign trail stumping for McCain-Palin. And what stupid things is he saying? Well, for one, he said that an Obama victory means death to Israel.
This guy seriously needs to go away.

Does he think he has a chance against Marcy Kaptur?
The election map thingy on DailyKos tells me these are the vote percentages she's gotten in the last three elections:
'02: 74%
'04: 68%
'06: 74%
First, thanks for the link to the DailyKos map. I hadn't seen that before and now I have yet another website to view obsessively before next Tuesday.
Second, I'm from the fightin' 9th and Kaptur has been our congresswoman for as long as I've been alive... it's hard to imagine some random schmo unseating her.
