So Time Magazine has chosen Fed Chief Ben Bernanke as its Man of the Year. This choice is getting some cat-calls from various media and Wall Street types. However, they could have done a LOT worse ...
Here are some of the Time runners-up:
General McChrystal
The Chinese Worker (this could end up being the choice for Person of the Century)
Nancy Pelosi
Usain Bolt
As I mentioned, Time could have gotten it a lot worse, in my view. Imagine if they had picked some of these jokers for Man of the Year:
Tim Geithner

Tiger Woods

Kate Gosselin

Bernie Madoff
