CliqueClack Presidential Election: We have a winner!

The most important election in the country has been decided! That’s right, we have chosen a fictional president here at Clique Clack. Thanks to everyone who voted in our poll.

It was a close election, with Jed Bartlet eking out a narrow victory over Laura Roslin. She was my candidate, and I’m taking this pretty hard. I’ll get over it though. I won’t even call for a recount in Florida. Those hanging chads can be a pain, but I don’t think they were the culprit here. I figure that John Sheridan was causing a split in the outer space vote. Roslin needed the support of all those sci fi fans, and Sheridan was taking away from her target demographic. Hopefully she can kick that breast cancer and run again in four years. We’ll just have to wait and see.

With Jed Bartlet we have an experienced leader. Heck, he’s already been President of the United States for two terms. Let’s hope he can use that fancy PhD in economics to lead our country out of this financial crisis.

So, what do you think of our fictional pick for president? Is Bartlet the right man to lead our nation into the future? Were you hoping that the head of Richard Nixon would get elected?
