Sorry for bumping, but I am ashamed of my historical list, and I need to update for the history books with changes. Anyone else feel free to show changes as well, but I may be more fickle than most of this forum. 13 months of debates, etc is an eternity for my favorabilities.

-The Best, Most Beautiful Politicians in Existence-
[10] Chris Christie (+1)
[9.5] Brian Schweitzer (+.5)
[9.5] Joe Biden (+5) (He did something speech that really bothered me at the time, but I got over that fast)
[9.5] Donald Trump (+6.5) (I was turned off by the whole birth certificate stuff at the time I still liked him personally, just not politically yet)
[8.5] Kirsten Gillibrand (+.5)
[8] Jim Webb (+2)
[7.5] Lindsey Graham (+1)

-Meh, a few good qualities-
[6.5] Rand Paul (-2.5)
[6.5] Elizabeth Warren (-)
[6.5] Mike Huckabee (-.5)
[6.5] Sarah Palin (+1.5)
[6.5] Ben Carson (+1)
[6] Jeb Bush (+5)
[6] Al Gore (-1)
[5.5] John Kasich (+1.5)
[5] Hillary Clinton (-)
[5] Bob Ehrlich (-1)
[5] Rick Santorum (-.5)

-One or Two Silly or Redeeming Features-
[4.5] Rick Perry (-)
[4.5] Jim Gilmore (-1.5)
[4] Bernie Sanders (-) (Went up fast, and then tumbled back to where he started!)
[4] Peter King (+2)
[3.5] Marco Rubio (-3)
[3.5] Scott Walker (-5)
[3] Martin O'Malley (-1)

-Would Probably Never Vote For-
[2.5] Bobby Jindal (-5)
[2] Michele Bachmann (-1.5)
[2] George Pataki (-)
[1.5] Mike Pence (-2.5)
[1.5] Carly Fiorina (-3)
[1.5] Mark Everson (-)
[1.5] John Bolton (-)
[-0-] Andrew Cuomo (-)
[-0-] Ted Cruz (-)
[-0-] Louie Gohmert (-)

Lincoln Chafee would be a 6. Didn't take him seriously enough for the original list. Lessig either a 1 or who care.

Why did Jeb rocket up your list?

Why did Jeb rocket up your list?

I used to see him as some super-evil monster, but now I see him as a silly, harmless Mama's boy, who I can't help but pity thanks to Trump.

Hmm, not much change here:

I'll move Bernie down 1 point because of his ridiculous contested convention antics, even though it's clearly just bluster it's still annoying. Also for hiring Jeff Weaver.

I'll move Rand down 1 point for being a sellout and tryhard.

Move Webb down 2 points for being a Confederate apologist.

Move Cuomo up 1 point for the minimum wage increase.

Move Lavenous Marco down 1 point for the annoying media bias and hype.

Move Gilmore and Trump up 1 point each for providing some lulz.
