The polling data says very little about the most pressing campaign issues, but obviously it's important to someone — or at the very least, someone paid for it.

Is Kerry ‘Hair Apparent’ to the Oval Office?

When Kerry chose John Edwards as his running mate, he jokingly proclaimed: "We've got better vision, better ideas … a better sense of what's happening to America. And we've got better hair."

But Kerry had a very bad hair day when the Wahl Clipper Corp. released a poll that found Bush has a lock on victory, at least when it comes to the locks on his forehead.

The hair care company's "Grooming Index" found that 51 percent of Americans prefer Bush's hairdo, while only 30 percent see Kerry as the White House "hair apparent."

The poll, conducted by Opinion Research Corp., reflected the views of 1,009 respondents, including 512 men.

Ten percent thought neither had an advantage, suggesting that Kerry and Bush should both consider a makeover appearance on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, while another 9 percent were undecided.

Wahl's "Hair Grooming Index" did not pit Edwards vs. Dick Cheney. Perhaps because that's a no-brainer, considering Cheney's balding pate and Edwards' cool cut.

Who’s More Kissable?

Kerry may come across to some as a cold intellectual, but a Close-Up toothpaste poll has some lip-smacking answers for his critics. The Democrat edges out Bush by a margin of 43 percent to 41 percent in the presidential puckering poll.

Independent Ralph Nader was least kissable, earning just 12 percent, and there's no telling how his largely unkissable puss influenced this race.
