Joe Kristan, who writes the Tax Updates for Roth & Company, has a neat annual tradition. He names a Taxpayer of the Year.
This year, though, he's letting readers have a hand in the selection.
As you might suspect, these aren't folks who are just going about their business and getting their 1040s and assorted schedules into the IRS every April.
Rather, the 2008 "distinguished" nominees in Joe's self-described arbitrary slate include, in part, a politician (what a surprise!), an athlete (we're shocked!) and a certified whack job who wanted to commission a tax-related whack job.
Check out Joe's full list of Taxpayer of the Year candidates and, as he says, vote early and vote often.
