Washington took the honors in a Harris poll of 2,255 adults conducted in December. His previous four wins include a threepeat from 2006-2008 and another nod in 2012. Even more impressive is that in the latest poll the man with his foot firmly planted in at least 3,000 asses is more popular with women than he is men. John Wayne, who finished second in the poll, is the favorite among dudes.
