The McCain campaign continues to insist that he’s the soul of integrity, but according to a report by Keith Olberman on the Daily Kos blog, Joe Wurzelbacher, aka Joe the Plumber, has been peddling a book deal — not by getting an agent and approaching big houses in New York, but, oddly, by contacting “talent representation agencies” in Los Angeles.
