Joe The Plumber Wants to Be Jessica Simpson

Joe the Plumber's next stop: The Ivy restaurant.

The heretofore unknown and more or less mediocre Samuel J. Wurzelbacher is trying to elasticize his 15 minutes of fame: He's actually enlisted three managers to craft his "brand," and could get into country singing. "Joe is a hard-core country music fan, and he can carry a tune," says his manager apparently without irony.

Other possible gigs include shilling for Home Depot or, less specifically, being "the voice of Middle America." One thing he says he won't do: Run for office.

47. What are you brain washed liberals talking about? This guy asked a perfectly logical question no matter who (if anyone ) got him to aks it. And instead of focusing on the answer Obama gave, everyone in the media and Obama KGB went after him! The message to all other AMERICANS, DO NOT QUESTION OBAMA!!!!! They used Government computers to track down this guys information. If Bush would have done that all you liberal democrats would have demanded invetigations and firings ASAP. Talk about your double standard. Or the pot calling the kettle black. Enjoy your FREE SPEECH now because after the election if Obama wins it will be over. So will a lot of your other rights people have died for. As for Joe he is just enjoying capitalism before it is gone. You libs should try it and quit trying to ruin it. Blame Bush all you want but anyone with a brain knows that the democrats are behind this mess with the economy more than anyone.
