Republican congressional candidate Samuel Wurzelbacher, also known as Joe the Plumber, does not plan on attending President Obama’s rally in his Ohio district Thursday — the same kind of event that brought him to national attention four years ago — he told ABC News.
“If I was Obama, I would be embarrassed to come here,” Wurzelbacher said.
Wurzelbacher is running against Democratic incumbent Rep. Marcy Kaptur in Ohio’s 9th district.
