The best... and the worst

If something is happening on Capitol Hill, you can always count on C-SPAN to cover it. And when there's not anything... C-SPAN gets bored.

So... they make lists.

This one isn't so bad though, the Best and Worst Presidents.

Let's take a look the Top Ten.



Lincoln's number one - do you agree?

Lincoln, Washington, FDR, Roosevelt and Truman have ranked the top five for a while. Not a bad group.

Now for the worst...

Congrats Bush, Junior - you made the list!

For the breakdown...Bush scored:

• 41st in international relations
• 40th in economic management
• 25th in crisis leadership
• 25th in vision and agenda setting

His highest ranking, 24th, was in the category of pursuing equal justice for all.

So how did other recent Prezes do?

Bill Clinton came 15th... George H.W. Bush came in 18th and Jimmy Carter fell to 25th.

Personally, I think Clinton and Carter should be higher. Read my lips!
