Obama correctly identified that his supporters are stupid and changed the issue from being about his answer to being about Joe. Because it turns out that Joe isn’t really in much of a position to own a business and make 250K then that invalidates his question. You’d have to be a fool to believe that.

Whether the specific sitatution presented was real or hypothetical it can and does happen all across the US. Obama’s “spread the wealth” ideology is going to hurt a lot of people. Maybe not Joe the Plumber, but people like him who really are looking to start making more than 200-250K a year in the next few years.

The left is so full of stupid that they allowed Obama and Biden to ridicule someone for aspiring to succeed rather than looking to themselves and realizing, hey, I might really be in that position someday and that “spread the wealth” nonsense is going to hurt me.

But the left is short sighted. They see that they are not making 250K now so it doesn’t affect them now. They either have no aspirations to make 200-250K or are just not thinking about where they will be in the next few years. So therefore, Obama’s answer doesn’t matter, and Joe’s question is invalid, because it doesn’t affect them or Joe now.

The stock market is going back into a downward spiral thanks to Obama’s promises to raise capital gains tax and the left’s desire to stop pushing the 401(k).

When the market divebombs right after Obama is elected it’s just a coincidence. So just ignore Obama’s promises which will cause people to stop investing thereby driving the market down farther. The falling stock prices you see are all Bush’s fault.
