The end of the year brings speculation as to whom Time will pick as it's Person of the Year, although I remember with a nostalgic tear with it was Man of the Year. Often it's very difficult to guess, but I can't think of a year when it's been easier. The part I like about the process is that every year, Time has to explain patiently that the nominee is the person who, for better or worse, has done more to influence the news. Still, that will do nothing to dispel the inevitable criticisms that the selection of Barack Obama is further evidence of the librull media.

Runners up may include Paulson, Bernanke and MikeWaters, but I can't imagine anyone coming close to the President-elect.
