Note also how Senator Joe Biden had to also say to Jay Leno that Joe was not a real plumber.
Turns out that “Joe the Plumber,” as he became nationally known when Senator John McCain made him a theme at Wednesday night’s third and final presidential debate, may run a plumbing business but he is not a licensed plumber.
