So Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan is the leading vote getter for Time's person of the year.
I can hardly wait to see the fawning cover story should he win.
People often knock Time for naming Hitler as 1938's person of the year. But that cover story is surprisingly more critical than the "king of paean" I assumed.
For what it's worth, my vote goes to the Chilean miners for the ray of good news they gave us by simply hanging on.
