Joe the Congressional Candidate

Briefing Room reports that Sam "Joe the Plumber" Wurzelbacher is mulling a run for congress in 2010, and already has up right-wing talk radiatrix Laura Ingraham volunteering to do his PR. The depressing thing is that, after seeing the general congressional bafflement at the economic crisis, electing somebody who doesn't know the difference between net and gross income probably would not seriously decrease the overall economic competency of the House.
