Thanks Chris.
I'm thinking I'm going to give CorePHP's extension a go. It looks like it
will help simplify the templating merge and provides user list integration
with JomSocial, allows Joomla content modules in WP posts and some other
features. 
Have a blessed Thanks Giving :)

I have a job similar to this coming up. 

What I thought I would go about it would be just keep the two separate,
something like joomla site at the main directory and the wordpress in
something like blog/.

You would need two themes, wordpress and joomla,  

One problem with this is user comments, one way to solve this would be to
use a service like disqus. 

This method you won't be able to put joomla modules on wordpress pages, but
I assume if you are using wordpress you are doing so because authors are
used to using to to write blog posts and that is why you are keeping it
around. 

Trying to integrate them farther seems like a huge pain in the ass.
