I would give mine to Ted Kennedy. He makes no bones about being a liberal, lecherous, drunken old coot who time is passing by. At least he can be honest!

Actually - I'd agree with the nomination of Colin Powell. He was an honest man in a den of liars. He did his duty as best he could, and then got the hell out of there. He's made his displeasure known, to a degree, but hasn't gone out of his way to trash the administration. In general, he seems like a class act.

hmmm Ole Ted wasn't too honest when :On July 18, 1969, Kennedy attended a party on Chappaquiddick Island near the island of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts.Kennedy drove away with party guest Mary Jo Kopechne as a passenger in his 1967 Oldsmobile Delmont 88.According to Kennedy, he made a wrong turn onto an unlit road that led to Dike Bridge The car plunged into tide-swept Poucha Pond (at that location a channel) and came to rest upside down underwater. Kennedy was able to swim free of the vehicle, but Kopechne was not. Kennedy claims he tried several times to swim down to reach her, then rested on the bank. Although there was a telephone at the Lawrence Cottage, nobody called for help. When their efforts to rescue Kopechne failed, Kennedy decided to return to his hotel on the mainland. As the Edgartown-Chappaquiddick ferry had shut down for the night, Kennedy swam across the 500-foot channel, back to Edgartown.Kennedy discussed the accident with several people, including his lawyer and Kopechne's parents, before he contacted the police 10 hours after the accident.a large amount of air was released from the car when it was righted in the water, and that the trunk, when opened, was remarkably dry. These observations coupled with the position that the diver found her body (with her head toward the floor of the car where any trapped air would be because the car was lying on its roof)No autopsy was performed and the precise cause of death is unknown.
Do you really think "old Ted" deserves an award?

I'd pick Mitt Romney. He was called in when scandal threatened the Salt Lake Winter Olympics, and was instrumental in restoring integrity to the winter games, or at least the nominating process. He's now served for enough time as governor of Massachusetts for a fair evaluation of his record there. Many may not agree with his politics, but his honesty has not been seriously questioned.

Honest Politician. I can't think of one but I do like John McCain more then most. I liked Colin Powell and Rudolph Guliano, that's about it. I think an honest politician is one who isn't speaking.
