Well, no kidding. Wouldn't you want to meet Time's 1938 Man of the year?

I always wanted to work mine into a bio blurb in the third person like they do for authors on the back of the book:
When she's not busy writing the next great American novel, Ms. Gordon might be found crashing Mormon internet boards or feigning wardrobe malfunctions. She's a passionate college football fan and remains hopeful that her team will, in fact, manage to win a bowl game sometime this century. She watches Gameday religiously, and is convinced that Kirk Herbstreit will eventually return her phone calls.
Her skills as a housekeeper are suspect, but they are superior to her recent performances as a triathlete. And the fledgling plants outside her home would very much appreciate it if she would abandon her attempts at gardening. She lives in the reddest state in the union with her husband and their two sons, and a Golden Retriever cleverly named Goldie.

You're right. No one else should be chosen. It's just hard to imagine. But how do you explain Rudy Giuliani in 2001, instead of GWB? Or Time's steadfast refusal ever to choose GWB, even at the end of 2003, when he decided to swagger into Iraq? I ask this not as a Bush fan (I am not) but just as an observer who really does think, um, that Time does, um, have that librull bias. You aren't really saying they are objective, are you? Say it ain't so, PAC . . . .

You do know that Hitler won it in 1938, right?
