The folks at Townhall.com’s C-Log are debating whether John Edwards is hot or not. Carolyn Davids likes the Southern accent; Emily Shaheen says he’s “prissy.”

Meanwhile, the voters at Am I Annoying? give the Golden Boy a 57.04% annoying approval rate in 2003.

(Your humble correspondent, by comparison, scored a 42.35% annoying approval rate. But that’s before all the Tupac worshipers start spamming the site.

Update: A reader informs me that my annoying rate has shot up to 64.83%. Edwards’ current annoying rate: 44.75%.

Update II: Another reader observes that while the U.S. is ranked 9th most annoying, al Qaeda is only 49th!

Update III: John Edwards’ hair has inspired a Jeff G. haiku at Protein Wisdom.
