White House adviser Karl Rove tops the unofficial list of contenders for Time's 2004 Person of the Year, according to a panel assembled by the magazine yesterday.

Other candidates proposed by the panel include President Bush — and one of his biggest critics, filmmaker Michael Moore.

Also suggested was "Passion of the Christ" director Mel Gibson.

Time's list is generally made up of the biggest newsmakers of the year. If that is the criteria, then Bush will win hands down.

If sKerry would have won, the name of Swine Moore was at top. American people voted: Karl rove is their hero!

[Always Right]

I vote for Ronald Wilson Reagan

[mysto]

It should be "People of the Year"... the Swift Boat Vets. But of course Time would never allow that...

[Westlander]

How about the soldier who capped the alleged 'unarmed insurgent'.

[Darkwolf377]

Time has gone out of its way not to make Bush MAN of the Year. My favorite dodge was when they chose "The Whistleblowers", who turned out to be not nearly so heroic as they were protrayed.

I'm betting on Mikey Moore. I don't think Time has the stomach to give it to Bush.

[alessandrofiaschi]

Is it possible to vote for somebody on line?

[alessandrofiaschi]

It doesn't sound good! Please, don't kiddind.

[alessandrofiaschi]

The last time (in 2000) I don't remember if Bush was the man of the year. Besides, Reagan was in the eighties?

[Darkwolf377]

Yeah, they did pick Bush for 2000 when they had no choice, they always give it to the Pres. But I have a feeling they may make an exception.

I hope GWB will win the place...

[billclintonwillrotinhell]

Giving it to Karl Rove would be a way for the liberal media to say the American public was manipulated into voting for Bush by a cunning political strategist. Did Dick Morris ever receive this honor in 1992 or 1996?

[bullzeye66]

Michael 'MORON' Moore??? Are they serious.... instead of person of the year, maybe "fata$$-moron" of the year!!!

[counterpunch]

Person of the year should be "the blogger"

[ObsCorp.]

I hope Time Magazine will published another topic...Men of the Year... i want the United States Soldiers be on the cover...

[ClaudiusI]

How about The American People? We were most certainly the
ones who had the most influence this year.

[ambrose]

How about the SwiftVets as "Men of the Year"?

[Zeroisanumber]

How about the soldier who capped the alleged 'unarmed insurgent'?

I don't think that his crime was far-reaching enough to be consdered for "Man of the Year".

[Always Right]

The last time (in 2000) I don't remember if Bush was the man of the year. Besides, Reagan was in the eighties?

Reagan's death capture the nation's attention like no other event. And the election was a huge victory for the Conservative movement which Reagan was responsible for. Bush is carrying the torch of Reagan. Reagan is the man of the Year.
