Political Question

I keep hearing about "Joe the plumber" and "Joe six pack." I get the plumber thing, but I'm confused about the six pack (maybe I'm just slow). Are we referring to Joe's abs? Or his beer?

...'Cause if we're talking about Joe's drinking habits, the picture that comes to mind (think sizeable gut, recliner...stereotype? Absolutely but at least I'm being honest) is not really representative of most Americans I know. But then, neither are the washboard abs.

Maybe I run with the wrong crowd (this is a definite possibility), but I just don't think this is a slogan I can get behind.
