I'm a little fuzzy today, since I stayed up until midnight last night to hear Tim Russert say: "We now know who the Democratic nominee's going to be, and no one's going to dispute it."
Whether this is true or not, only time will tell. But what I want to know is this: if the candidates were 400 ISO professional film stock, which would they be? I think one of these folks is Much more Fujifilm NPH, and the other is Much more Kodak VC.
Hint: VC, not NC.
What say you?

Ah, the age old question...
Well I'd say Clinton is the Kodak (nice rich warm tones, working class American company struggling to adapt to the new century) and Obama the Fuji (great cool tones, sharp as a pin, multiculti company not slowly going out of business), but I think you gamed it a bit by presenting Clinton in a yellow suit and Obama in grey with a blue tie.
But maybe that's just me.
OK, Nick made this hard by setting up the dorktime poll with a GREAT ANSWER. Let's see what the rest of you have.
Yes, obviously Clinton is Kodak--old establishment, all american, and a two syllable name starting with a "k" sound. Obama is the challenger, a bit more exotic, newer on the scene.
It's all just a flash in the pan anyway. To tell you the truth, they both look like underexposed over processed Tri-X on some out of date ilford paper.
Besides, why aren't John M. and the Green Party candidate in the dorkpoll? then we could include some fading poloroids and Type S.
VC pops like Obama, while NPG's crispness and fidelity is all Clinton.
