Man: The GOP race almost certainly will come down to Mitt or Newt. So our 2012 election choices will be Mitt or Newt or Barack. Whatever happened to politicians named Bob?
I agree. If this keeps up, next thing you know, we’ll have candidates running for President with REALLY weird names Names like Milliard, or Dwight, or Grover, or Rutherford, or Ulysses, or Warren, or Woodrow. or…or….
Even your most right wing historians regard them as near the top in quality performance (see ANY presidential rankinglist). Once again, all you do is embarass yourself via your prejudice.
What Bob? We’ve never had a Bob as president, despite Dole’s best efforts. And let’s not forget that while we have had Tom, Dick and Harry, we’ve also had Rutherford, Ulysses, Woodrow, Franklin (twice!), Teddy, Martin, Grover, Warren, Calvin, Lyndon, and, of course, Millard!

There’ll be more of them if you’d stop naming your children Cody and Tyler.

I’ve noticed people are conveniently overlooking Ron Paul. despite his lack of attention, he’s also pretty high in the standings.

I’m not that thrilled with the Robert(s) on the SCOTUS. I’m not sure I want one in the White House.
