Time Magazine Person of the Year - Robert Mueller is not on the list!

[avebury]

I can't believe it. His investigation is going to be a big factor for the foreseeable future and Time leaves him off the list.

I wanted to give him my vote because I think that he deserves it plus it would burn Trump.

[Sanity Claws]

1. Next year

When he catches bigger fish

[onenote]

3. +1

[tazkcmo]

9. That was MY reply!!!!

He can't win this year because he hasn't done anything beyond investigating. Yet. If all goes well, he'll be the ONLY candidate next year and THEN it will be Mueller Time!

[Sneederbunk]

11. One big carp awaits.

2. We don't know what Time's real list is.

They post an online survey for entertainment value, but the real decision is made by the editorial board and not on the basis of the survey. So it could be anybody.

Anyhow, maybe they're saving Mueller for next year, after he's taken down the whole sorry bunch.

4. Just as well, he needs to keep a low profile right now. nt

[TomSlick]

5. He really hasn't made a lot of news - yet!

Here's hoping he makes the list next year.

[Maeve]

6. Wait for it--next year, no question!

12. me tool

[fierywoman]

20. Me too - yesterday.

[MFM008]

8. I voted. He was on the list

But over 80 % didn't think he was important........

P.s. I did...

[L. Coyote]

16. Don't confuse the public survey with the Editorial Board's deliberations and their actual list.

[Blue_Adept]

10. People do understand what the list is about right?

Good or bad, a person that has had an outsized effect on things during the year. Mueller has not had that.

This could be a climate change year with a focus on the hurricanes through texas and the islands.

It could focus on any number of things.

Person of the year is just the title. It's far more than that. It's what has an impact.

[StevieM]

18. I like you hurricanes idea. I hadn't thought of that.

Otherwise, my vote goes to Xi Jinping.

[L. Coyote]

13. They are doing a Trump cover nonetheless:

[underpants]

14. WOMEN

it's going to be WOMEN

[handmade34]

17. maybe #metoo?? n/t

[underpants]

22. That's a big part of it

Women's March
Killing ACA repeal
Women candidates
#metoo

Etc.

[oberliner]

15. Yes he is

He has 3 percent so far in the voting.

[StevieM]

19. I think Xi Jinping deserves strong consideration. (eom)

[elfin]

21. I am thinking "Women"

With the cover being the pink hat massive march after the "election."

Or else "Hate", with a snarling Trump as the pic.
