Plumberology
Thirty-six years after "the Plumbers" broke into the Watergate building, plumbers once again figure prominently in a presidential campaign. What is it with plumbers?
Anyway, conservative newshounds, but not reporters and editors, will notice this anamoly:
About 6,500 showed up to see The One. The center holds 10,500.
The crowd booed McCain- This did not appear to make any national headlines.
Boos do not make headlines. Accusations of racism do.
CWCID: Glenn Reynolds, who has more plumber linkage.

I have been saying for a long time we could use more honest, hard working plumbers in Washington and fewer lawyers. Plumbers understand infrastructure, maintenance and capital investment in a way that your average lawyer could never grasp. Plumbers know the dangers of pushing a system beyond it's limits and they comprehend the fact that sometimes you have to get dirty to do critical tasks. Plumbers can't vote "present".
