Poll: Obama Should Go as Superman for Halloween


Poll: Obama Should Go as Superman for Halloween

October 14, 2009 04:05 PM ET | Paul Bedard | Permanent Link | Print
By Paul Bedard, Washington Whispers

The nation might be divided on elements of his agenda, but when asked who President Obama should go as for Halloween, our latest Washington Whispers poll is clear: Superman. Some 38 percent in our Synovate eNation poll said that the prez is still their man of iron and should wear the cape and tights trick-or-treating with his two daughters.

But for proof about the division in the country, the second choice wasn't any superhero. Just over 27 percent chose the hapless Charlie Brown as the most fitting costume for the president. Still, the rest of the choices weren't so bad for Obama. Some 19 percent see him dressed as the thoughtful Albert Einstein; 9 percent as Bill Clinton, the Comeback Kid; and 7 percent as TV superdoctor Derek Shepherd, a bow to his healthcare agenda.

With two young daughters, President Obama might be seen out trick-or-treating with them on Halloween. Which of the following costumes fits your view of the president?

Confident Superman: 38%
Hapless Charlie Brown: 27%
Thoughtful Albert Einstein: 19%
Comeback Kid Bill Clinton: 9%
TV Dr. Derek Shepherd: 7%

(for him). I don't think he's Superman, I just hope he can draw on his intelligence and personal strength of character to help guide us out of this mutherfuckin MESS the repugs got us into. One thing I keep reminding myself of is what was the alternative of the presidential election. Where in the hell would we be if John McCain & Palin were sitting in the catbird seat??? Shudder. :crazy:

6. I'm surprised nobody is marketing that costume idea.
Wear a Superman suit and cape with an Obama mask. It would make a million$$$.

8. Why did I picture him doing a news conference in a Halloween get up and fly back inside the WH.
Ugh...strange thoughts.
