maybe i'm wrong
But I always thought "Joe Sixpack" was a reference to an average American male, the guy who goes home and drinks a six-pack of beer. Seems that one
reporter thinks it means guys with tight abs. And that's why Palin keeps talking about Joe Sixpack... she's trying to appeal to the average,
all-American, blue collar, white, conservative male crowd.
Not sure why I think it's so funny that they obviously missed the point, but I do.

I always thought it was the average working class male tha t enjoyed a 6 pack after the day was done, but who know what kind of twist that flake will
try and put on it.
I'm more like joe 12 pack on occasion.
