“I would hope that Obama is smart enough not to make an issue of it, because it would not reflect well on him if it came out. He would be stupid to take vengeance on some relatively unimportant guy he’ll never even meet if it might threaten to reflect badly on him.”
Obama would NEVER do that...as Joe the Plumber knows, Obama has people for that type of mission...
Obama certainly didn’t gain anything by going after Joe the Plumber. In fact, given McCain’s stupidity, it was almost the only negative publicity he got during the last stages of the campaign.
So the question is, is he going to be smart, or vindictive? Given the fact that he’s well trained in the Chicago Way, I wouldn’t be entirely hopeful, but even mobsters and narcissists can learn sometimes that it’s best just to let it go.
