It's time for Round 5! The next step in our quest to choose the "ass clown of the year" for 2009 (see the first diary for further explanation).
Day 1 started with 10 candidates, day 2 with 8, day 3 with 6, day 4 with 4, and... we're down to 3. The choices are below, so please vote, but here's a recap since round 4:
- "Teabaggers" have been eliminated, after coming in 4th, with 11%.
- Staying in -- the final 3 -- are Palin, Beck, and Lieberman.
Now, Beck got closest to the 50% mark last round, scoring 42%, up from 36% the previoius round, and 32% the one before that. So he is indeed the favorite. But... it ain't over til it's over, so...
Go ahead, cast your vote, and if someone gets more than 50%, we will officially crown the top ass clown of 2009! Otherwise, we'll be back tomorrow with the absolute final round (i.e., just 2).
Go ahead, vote, speak your piece, and... may the best ass clown win!
(please rec, so it's up long enough to get a critical mass of votes!)
