Joe isnt saying jack.....hes just repeating what hes told to say and he knows not what any of it means and who or if it affects anyone, nor does he care. He is so past pull its embarrassing for the party and those who say hes fine, patty murray comes to mind, another cork head.
At this point simple joe is the scapegoat by virtue of the party using his name to circulate all the unintelligent diatribe they are trying desperately to sell.
