Does any but me find it somewhat interesting that the 3 top prospects
for our next President are named Barack, Newt and Mitt?

Even if we went with their real first names (Barack, Newton and
Willard) I'd still find it interesting.


Being lefthanded, I'm more impressed that the republicans aren't
offering us a lefty. 5 of the last 7 presidents have been left
handed.

It might be fun to look back at who ran against who over the years and
see if there was another time when the front runners all had less than
common given names.


We started pretty much with George, John & Tom- so they had to get
less common as time went on.

I had to peak- http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0781450.html

There was 1868- Ulysses and Horatio [and nobody remembers Horatio
Seymour, do they?]

I remembered Dwight-- forgot Adlai- so 1952 was interesting.

I think Barack and either Newt or Mitt will take the cake.
