Know there was one for a while with the same (almost) unfortunate name 
as a politician running for office at the time (one of them has an 's' 
at the end, the other doesn't, but I can never remember which if which), 
but.. Ironically, I can't remember the name. They would tape 8 hours at 
a time (no wonder some people started to "think" he was getting things 
right, they where all half asleep...), then cut the whole thing down to 
a 1 hour show, by "editing" the footage. See, he would do the whole "I 
sense a P.", BS, then when he missed, jump to someone else, then someone 
else, etc., and after the original victim had more or less forgot what 
they told him, he would jump back to them and announce, "Oh, and Uncle 
Puke said he liked salad forks a lot.", or what ever they had told him 
already, and he would be off on another series of hits, almost hits, 
etc., until he missed, then jumped to someone else again.

The sad thing was, **despite** having 8 hours, a good memory, and the 
ability to edit it, so it "looked like" he was doing well on TV, he 
***still*** sucked at it, getting fewer hits, and generally performing 
far worse, than any one of the professional cold readers out there.. lol

Oh, wait. John Edwards, I think it was...
