Flashback - top 10 political personalities of 2005
In preparation of doing another one of my "top ten of 2006" posts in coming days, I wanted to at least point out another one of them I'd done around this time last year:
SDWC's top 10 political personalities of 2005
A lot of it had to do with who was hot in the political news and why. Already on this list, I see a few who will be back (albeit in different positions) and a few who won't.
Adelstein will likely make it back as he's absolutely dominated political news (whether I like it or not) in Rapid City. My friend Brock? Outside of the SDPTV issue and his primary race, he was not as public this year as he might have been on abortion and other issues last year.
Dang. There's some tough choices here. I may have to make it top 20. I suspect I'll have to add an honorable mention list for this one as well.
What say you?
