  • Skippy the Bush Kangaroo - How the Democrats Could Win Big This Election And Probably Won't: Skippy gives a few hints as to who the Democrats could pander to so they could win in 2002. I have a better idea... don't field candidates for 2002, let the Republicans have 2 years to mess things up their own special greedy way, then win big in 2004 with "I Told You So" campaigns.

  • Stefan "Shark" Sharansky - Sharansky Peace Prize: Who won, and who should have won for truly creating an opportunity for peace.
