I don’t blog about Britney Spears, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan much anymore ’cause they are almost always all over the media every single day. I don’t think my readers would want to see them posted here either since they are everywhere else, plus I despise the three women mentioned anyways.

Actually, Obama getting elected should be number 1. He beats them all easily, ESPECIALLY your #4, Kev.
