No one paid any fucking attention to Joe until McCain started swinging  
him against Obama in the debate.

McCain was the one who thrust him into the public sphere.

And you have an interesting definition of "trashed"; they checked his  
story (no he's not a plumber, no he's not buying a business, no his  
name isn't actually Joe...) until after that event.
