Where are they now? - Joe the Plumber

Busy rebranding himself as Joe the Shameless Self Promoter.

But apparently, he didn't move quickly enough to register joetheplumber.com before that domain and every conceivable variation thereof got squatted upon. The URL of Joe the Website is secureourdream.org. What dream? Joe doesn't say.

Since we have launched this website, tens of thousands of you have expressed your desire to join this movement. I am truly humbled by your support, your kind words of encouragement and your becoming a part of something that I believe we all feel can truly change the course of this country for the better.
What movement? Joe doesn't say.

Maybe it's a movement to pretend you're a plumber when you're not.

Or to pretend you're a taxpayer when you're not.

Or to pretend you're a guy named Joe when you're not.

He does take the time to shill a supposedly-soon-to-be-ghostwritten book on "American values" titled Joe the Plumber: Fighting for the American Dream.

Every other page, including "Joe the Blogger," "Joe the Forum," and "Joe in the Media" is said to be coming soon.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and predict that none of it actually will. It's crazy, I know, but that's how I roll.
