Do The Right Thing -- Vote for Casey

Former Cato Institute education wonk Casey Lartigue wins a prize for (a) being only the second blogger to note the "best-looking" hullabaloo in his blog (Jimmy Kilpatrick at Education News was the first), (b) calling for some diversity on the list, and (c) -- this is the best part -- calling on his readers to nominate him.

In case you're curious, here's Casey, who looks like a friendly, well-groomed guy.

For brute looks, thought, it doesn't seem fair to put him up against Pedro (below).

So far, Nina Rees and Tim Knowles are the only awardees to acknowledge their newfound fame and notoriety -- both of them quite graciously and without any apparent offense-taking. No word from Senator Kennedy, Senor Schnur, or Wendy Kopp yet, but I'm sure the gift baskets are on their way.
