This one is a share from my RSS reading list…<\/p>\n

Heard about Joe a few days back. I am that kind of guy who usually forgets names. But this guys name stuck in my mind because he was making $250K a year! And he is a PLUMBER!!<\/p>\n

The Analysts at CNN were already blowing this guys name up much before McCain (almost surely) made it a Dictionary term by mentioning it 21 times<\/a>! I think this was more than the number of times he mentioned Senator Obama (For the record, he mentioned Obama 41 times)!!!<\/p>\n

Check out the number of Ads<\/a> that show up when you search Google for this guy. He is already selling Tax calculators, T-Shirts and hair treatments.<\/p>\n

And just for the heck of it, I created this word cloud<\/a> of the top 50 words mentioned by McCain during the 3rd presidential debate from the transcript using Wordle<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And almost immediately after I finished it, looks like some one did the cloud <\/a>for Obama’s transcript :).<\/p>\n
