"Joe the Plumber" for Congress?


Am I dreaming? This can't be real. Joe the Plumber running for Congress? He must be crazy!
The Capital reports:
The filing for "Joe for Congress 2012" was just submitted on Friday, and the scanned file does not yet appear on the FEC's site, and went without notice, to my knowledge, until a couple of hours ago.

The statement of candidacy isn't online yet, but it lists Wurzelbacher in Ohio's Ninth District, which has been held by Democrat Marcia Kaptur since 1983. Wurzelbacher floated the idea he might challenge Kaptur in 2010, and there have been rumors recently that he might consider a run.
Joe, please get out while you can.

Eww. What a sad situation. Joe, you were a flash in the pan. Keep it moving Joe, and go find your real purpose in life.

He's going up against Kucinich or Kaptur though. They both have held political offices while Joe the Plumber wasn't even a plumber.
