LBJ, massive freedom fighter who made better the lives of many millions of poor and downtrodden Americans
Ann Richards, last Dem governor of Texas (RIP)
Dick Yarborough, one of the most pro-Civil rights Senators in the entire South, voted for all the Civil Rights bills in the 50s and 60s
Lloyd Bentsen, last Dem senator from Texas, would have been good VP
David Dewhurst was very good by GOP standards, it's a shame he isn't Senator today

Not a "politician", but if it counts, my favorite political figure in California is easily RoseAnn DeMoro.

Not an Upton Sinclair kinda guy?

In that case, yes I do think Lincoln was good, so I guess Lincoln would win my vote.
