Gary Johnson

In his second debate Thursday evening, former New Mexico governor Gary Johnson (R) scored some laughing expression at President Obama’s expense on the economy.
Johnson unleashed this funny zinger: “My neighbor’s two dogs have created more shovel-ready projects than this president.”
But the joke bore some resemblance to a similar punch line announced by conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh the same day as the debate.
In his interview, Johnson said he got the line from a contest held by a New Mexico radio station that asked listeners to deliver the top 14 best lines for use in the debate.
The line was “among a list of 14 zingers sent to me,” Johnson said, referring to the radio station. It was a “ excellent collection New Mexico effort that gave me that line.”
