An article in the Washingtonian this month revealed the vehicular choices of some prominent politiciations.

Mini Cooper: Trent Lott, Ben Nighthorse Campbell

Cadillac Escalade: Terry McAuliffe (DNC chair), James Carville

Terry McAuliffe cruises around in a 6.0 liter leviathan doesn't suprise me one bit. (Democratic hipocrasy runs rampant in this country)

Picking and choosing which political actors you show creates a skewed image of reality.  I'm sure it would be just as easy to find two Republicans who drive gas guzzlers and two Democrats who drive more efficient vehicles in order to show how Republicans hate the environment.

Also, could you point me to that article?  I went to the Washingtonian website and can't find it anywhere in either this month's or last month's archives.

I did a quick search on Yahoo with the key words "politician" and "cars" but couldn't find anything.  I'm guessing the info came from a Op/Ed column, hence the James Carville inclusion.

You might have to pull that $5 bill out  of your wallet (and start the process of Lincoln being blinded by sunlight) and buy one..

Thanks for the link; their website search function stinks.  I'll just wait until they post it online next month.  It appears they remove some content in order to encourage buying the print magazine, and a month later they add the excluded material to the website.

Now, what's the complete list?  They only show Lott, Campbell, McAuliffe, and Carville?
