• Monday Poll: A plurality of Hucks Nation sez conservative firebrand Michele Bachmann would have the best chance to win a tight-fittin’ jeans contest among the current field of GOP presidential candidates & President Barack Obama. Butch Otter, whom NYTimes columnist Gail Collins wants to run for president, won in a tight-fittin’ jeans contest in his colorful past. Bachmann claimed 48 of 107 votes (44.86%) to easily win the tongue-in-cheek poll. Obama was second with 20 of 107 votes (18.69%), while Ron Paul was third with 14 (13.08%), and Rick Perry & Mitt Romney tied for fourth with 7 votes (6.54%) apiece. The rest of the field split the remaining votes.
