Joe The Plumber Seeks Book Deal

I just managed to drop this in to tonight's "Campaign Comment" and there aren't a lot more details to be had, but I learned during Countdown tonight that Joe "The Plumber" Wurzelbacher is now seeking a deal to write a book about his campaign experience.
This is from an unimpeachable source in the publishing industry, past whom very little in the field, gets. Good old all-American Joe, who has no motive whatsoever but keeping the electorate informed, who is the salt of the earth and the definition of America (now that Governor Palin isn't, any more) is hoping to cash in.

The specifics are, as I suggest, pretty slim. But the traffic was pretty straightforward: a lawyer representing Wurzelbacher has contacted a couple of the talent representation agencies (in Los Angeles, no less) seeking to get while the getting is good.
I suppose this shouldn't surprise anybody, especially given the cheesiness of the guy lying to Obama about the business that he wasn't trying to buy, even though he said it was, and isn't worth anywhere near $250,000 in business, even though he said it is. But one can assume, since they have been surprised by everything else, that the McCain Campaign is utterly stunned by this, and that Joe's usefulness is, uh, circling the drain.
My source did not indicate that the book had been titled, and I imagine we can offer some suggestions here.
I'll be delighted to start it off:
In The Crapper: My Two Weeks With John McCain.

1. The title should be

I am a right wing tax evading asshole.

[Xipe Totec]

2. My Pet Plumber? n/t

[Stellabella]

15. LOL!

That gets my vote.

[Liberal_in_LA]

3. about what? What's he done in his life that I want to read about?

[AlCzervik]

4. a whole book, a pamphlet maybe but a book?

[TheDonkey]

5. only in America. nm

[mitchum]

6. Joe The Scribbler? That fucking nitwit can't even talk...

I doubt that he can write

[daninthemoon]

11. you're probably right, but how many rw scumbags would be thrilled

to ghost write. sammy the liar has accomplished his mission: his name is in the public, and now he can market it. in mccain's circle, maybe sammy really is everyman

[asdjrocky]

7. Because we don't have enough books from people like Pat Buchanan.

8. OMG...just found one of the illustrations from it...

18. Where does the toilet flush to?

I don't see a sewer pipe. Is Joe the Plumber full of shit?

[daninthemoon]

9. I'm thinking the cover should feature Sam the Plumbers Helper

wearing one of anne coulter's dresses.

[Quixote1818]

10. Are they going to give the lady who thinks Obama is an Arab a book deal too?

And how about the guy carrying the stuffed animal monkey with the Obama hat?

:eyes:

[daninthemoon]

13. give her some crayons, and she can draw arabs vs Americans for us

[blue sky at night]

12. I used to work as a plumber....still do from time to time...

we really only had to know three things; Shit flows downhill, Payday is on Friday and the Boss is a son-of-a-bitch. Hey Joe, there is one sentence, just to get ya goin.....you betcha!!








CHange, HOpe, OBama......!

[Ferret Annica]

14. 'The Old Man and the She, and how they found Me'

Joe could use that as a title for his new book. Keith tore me up on that one. I just laughed into the hernia zone.

[DefenseLawyer]

16. That doesn't bother me in the least.

If the guy can jump on the Scaife/Heritage Foundation bulk sales gravy train and make a few bucks, it's no skin off my nose. More power to him. He will not really write a book that nobody will really read. What a country.

[kwolf68]

17. How about...

15 minutes of fame for idiots.
