I remember how competent, poised, charismatic and hot Hillary was early in the debates until Obama overtook her and she turned into a shrill.

If only we had her instead of him..

GO HILLARY!!

Doesn't really answer your specific question, but goes to what you're asking:

Sarah Palin.

I didn't check the US stats but Ron Paul was the Politician who had the most coverage overseas out of all republicans.

Obama was definitely the most talked about candidate. Everyone was giddy with the expectation that he would be all hopey and changey.

Sad that he turned out to be more dopey and driving rangey.

The MSM was having it's usual Dem-centric orgasmic shriekfest between Hillary and Obama.

Paul was the most organically discussed outside the MSM.

McCain was the only (R) the MSM deigned to talk about, on occasion. Palin got more coverage than McCain, near the end.
