Shocker: Barack Obama is the Time Magazine Person of the Year
No, not a shock. The Time Magazine Person of the Year is President-elect Barack Obama.
The magazine will feature (hits the newsstands tomorrow) long-lost college photos, an interview with Obama, an explanation of why he was chosen and more.
Who did you think Time Magazine was going to choose Sarah Palin?
By the way, the choice was so noteworthy that Time Magazine’s Jay Carney left Time to become Obama’s VP, Joe Biden’s flack.

Time’s definition of Man of the Year is “a man, woman, couple, group, idea, place, or machine that “for better or for worse, …has done the most to influence the events of the year.”â€They chose Bush twice, and they will probably choose Obama twice. Man of the Year isn’t necessarily an honorary title, hence Hank Paulson’s runner-up status.
