Yes, but I’m sure she knows.

Top 16. Woot Woot. Thanks Rebo!

74

Holy crap, I won?! I thought Al Franken and Scalia would do me in.

75

Dammit. My first thought was Perot, but since I went for most recent on Dem and Rep, I chose Nader instead.

And I tanked on current rep/sen.

So I’m smack dab in the middle – not where I’m used to being when it comes to politics. :wink:

76

20th is the best I’ve done in a looooooooong time. Thanks for the Feud!

77

Wow, that’s a lot better than I usually do. I anticipated that Perot would be a contender (though obviously I thought he’d be second), but I’m not sure why Barney Frank is so high in the hivemind consciousness.

78

Maybe the recent news that he just got engaged? For me, I could never remember if he was a House Rep or Senator. Bleh, failed in my sorta own feud!
