Joe the Plumber to vote for Obama, according to Romney

Samuel “Joe the Plumber” Wurzlebacher may be a Republican/Tea Partier/bald man, but that doesn’t mean he’ll be voting for fellow GOPer Mitt Romney come election day.

No, when Joe steps into the voting booth, he’ll be voting for himself for Congressman of the Ninth District of Ohio, and Barack Obama for President of the United States.

This may come as a shock to Joe’s supporters, since Joe frequently aims his political rhetoric, such that it is, directly at the President.

But the fact remains that as a part-time Congressional candidate, Joe will make only about $50,000 a year – all from a salary he draws from his own campaign.

Assuming standard deductions for Joe’s family and business expenses, it’s safe to say that Joe will be paying little or no federal income tax next year.
