Now he is going to head a watchdog org. to make sure the politicians do their jobs:

From National Review

NRO: So what's next for Joe the Plumber? Will you run for Congress?

JTP: Well, I won't be the next guy on The Bachelor. I don't plan on being a country music star, and I have no interest in Congress for at least ten years. I'm hoping this watchdog group comes to fruition and that will be what I spend most of my time on for the next few years to come.

I'm starting two websites, which are still getting up and running, but we're getting incredible feedback. The first website, secureourdream.com, is going to be a watchdog group to make sure that we hold not only the Democrats but also the Republicans accountable and make sure that they remember that they're working for us. Too many times they get on the Hill and they forget that — they get a sense of entitlement. We want to take that sense of entitlement away and make sure they're working for us and not the other way around. If that interest was there prior to the bailout, maybe we could have headed that off.

The second website, secureourdream.org, is going to be a charity. Americans give more money to charity than any other nation in the world and that's where I think spreading the wealth should start.
