Poll #9: Greatest Bob Dylan Album Ever
And here are the RESULTS OF POLL #8: "Who Would Make The Best President of The United States?"
Just over half of you (52%) agreed with me about Obama (see my "Obama Rave" here, if you missed it). But the rest of you were divided between the other 19 choices on the list. Well, actually, only 8 of the 20 choices got any votes at all. And, surprisingly, none of you voted for either Big Dick Cheney or George W. Bush (Four more years!!). Here's who you did vote for:
#1. Barack Obama (52%)
#2. John Edwards (11%)
#3. A four-way tie: Hilary Rodham Clinton, Dennis Kucinich, Al Franken and, yes, Weird Al Yankovic (7% each)
#7. A two-way tie: Al Gore and Ralph Nader (4% each)
OTHER POLL RESULTS:
Poll #7: "Greatest Threat To World Peace and Stability"

and Global Warming (8%)
Poll #6: "Biggest Dick(s) of The Year - 2007"
#1. As expected, but by a far larger margin than anyone could have guessed considering the field of candidates, the BIGGEST DICKS OF 2007 were Bush and Dick, Heroic Leaders of The Free World (31%).
#2. A 3-way tie between:
a) Stephen Harper, Hero to all Canadians who greatly admire what Bush and Dick have accomplished so far (13%)

#5. Sitting through one of those 7-hour speeches by Castro (9%)
Followed closely, in sixth place, by "Sitting through an entire Steven Seagal movie marathon" (7%)
Poll #2: "The Worst Songs of All Time"
1) "We Built This City" by Starship is THE WORST SONG OF ALL TIME. And a damn fine choice it is too, I must say.
2) The SECOND WORST SONG EVER is the very deserving "Step By Step" by New Kids On The Block.
3) The THIRD WORST SONG, and the number one single of the 70s, is "You Light Up My Life" by Debbie Boone.
4) And right behind Debbie, tied for fourth place, is her dad, Pat, who scored for "Anything and everything ever recorded by Pat Boone". Yes, that's right, his entire catalogue. And tied with Pat is Denise Williams with "Let's Hear It For The Boy", her hideously bad #1 hit from the film "Footloose".
Poll #1: "Who's The Biggest Dick?"
#1. And the biggest Dick is... Dick, as in Cheney (35%)
#2. Second Biggest Dick: Bush The Decider himself (27%)
#3. Dick Number Three: Donald Rumsfeld (15%)
#4 & 5. And scoring a dismal 12% each to come in tied for last place: Karl Rove and Paul Wolfowitz (aka Tiny Dicks). I mean, if Karl and Paul truly want to be Big Dicks like their friends then I really think they need to make more of an impression on the public. But, to be fair, the competition was fierce.
