Vote for TIME's 2010 Person of the Year

[arcane1]

Some choices are pretty interesting, while others make me wish I was a Starfleet officer on a survey mission to an alien planet, secure in the knowledge that I'll get beamed up soon.

You can rate each person from 1 to 100:

On iedt: I gave 100's to Julian Assange, Elizabeth Warren et al, and the Koch brothers. The rest got varying scores, with some obvious 1's :)

1. "The Unemployed American"

10. + 1000% .....

[Catherina]

12. +1 Thank you n/t

18. I'm with you on this

2. Considering the election results I'd say Glenn Beck.

Time person of the year, is not a "award" for best person of the year, but instead who had the most influence. Hitler and Stalin have won it in the past. In the same regard, this was Glenn Beck's year unfortunately.

3. Exactly, that's why I gave a high vote to the Kochs

9. I disagree - I don't think he's been so influential

More like the Koch Bros. or Assange.

Clowns like Beck have been around forever - only their names change.

4. I voted for the Unemployed American.

Lady Gaga? Oy.

6. Lady Gaga in 3rd place

Beam me up, Scotty! The sooner the better!!

5. It's going to be "The Tea Party"

Should, could, would... I think it is obvious what Time will pick.

7. Those stupid code words make it cumbersome as hell

and really difficult for those of us with less than perfect vision.

8. Pretty obnoxious to put Eliz Warren w Bair & Schapiro as one, imo.

11. Wonder how many here read this mag ... wasn't it over 30 years ago???

I'd really like to know if anyone actually buys it?

Read it in doctor's office -- cares what it says?

Or any other?

[arcane1]

13. I don't

I think its biggest effect is the cover when viewed in a checkout line.

Come to think of it, that applies to most newspapers too.

14. Wow!...they still print that piece o' shit.

Whatever.

[rocktivity]

15. The editors will make the final decision

And since the rethugs took half of Congress, they'll give it to either Beck or Palin.

Nice seeing Jon and Steve in the lead, of course.

:headbang:

16. Beck at the very bottom with average rating of 18%. Hahahaha. Colbert and

Stewart #1 with 91%, Obama #4 with 73%.

[slay]

17. Stewart and Colbert are winning but Julian Assange is a very close second

and he's who I voted for. Bout time SOMEBODY told us the truth.

19. DU has been my principal cyber-residence since 2002,

but I'm not the least interested in being politically correct here. So I voted 100% for Barack Obama!

[Bucky]

20. I wish it was Elizabeth Warren. Truth be told, it's Jim DeMint

He's the guiding force behind the Tea Party members of Congress. Together they'll usher in a new Gilded Age. Congratulations, assholes.
