More on the debate later but this morning the now famous Joe the Plumber was interviewed by Katie Couric of CBS News. He said that, in their conversation, Barack Obama tap danced around the issue of taxes like Sammy Davis Jr. Theres a lot wrong with this statement. First of all, why choose Sammy Davis Jr? He must have been referring to... well decide for yourself. Whether he was referencing Obama's dancing skills or ratpack mentality, Joe might not be the best supporter for McCain to flaunt.
More importantly, though, Think Progress linked a video to the actual conversation between Obama and Joe the Plumber. They talk for about five minutes and you can tell from their conversation that Obama certainly does not dance around the issue. Joe, just because you don't like the answer doesn't mean it wasn't given.
