If someone were to punch a presidential candidate...

Would they get into more trouble than if they punched the guy next door, or would they be charged with simple assault? Joe the plumber was a big strapping guy. It would've been cool to see him land a punch on Obama's chin. Maybe break his jaw in several places or knock out some teeth. Has that ever happened before?

      - I hope to divorce my disfigured wife and marry a beer heiress, would Obama's plan force me to share my hard earned wealth with those that didn't put in the hard work required to marry a beer heiress? - John 'six pack' McCain - 10/18/2008 3:43:18 PM

- "Joe the Proctologist" stiffs McCain, extremists, and is related to a Keating biggie. - Bowser - 10/17/2008 2:16:33 AM
  - Related to a Keating employee? - TB - 10/17/2008 3:42:17 AM

    - C'mon. This is a blatant, last-minute effort by McCain to grab onto a populist message. It's backfiring. (n/t) - z - 10/17/2008 12:24:07 AM
      - Backfiring? Go ahead. Wreck this guy's life on national TV. See how that works for you. (n/t) - TB - 10/17/2008 12:29:48 AM

- Fact checking is destruction? - ARRELL - 10/16/2008 7:36:16 PM
