Yesterday, during a speech in Las Vegas, a woman was arrested after throwing a shoe at Hillary Clinton. During a press conference in Baghdad in 2008, George W. Bush dodged two shoes that were thrown at him by an Iraqi journalist.
CNN asked which person was the superior shoe dodger:
Who's got the sharper shoe dodging instincts: Hillary Clinton or George Bush? http://t.co/3gu0QFuoQZ pic.twitter.com/MLxorxia67 via @TheLeadCNN

If the voting ends in a tie, will CNN recommend a “dodge-off” competition between Bush and Clinton?
Some didn’t any news-worthiness in the question:
.@CNN @TheLeadCNN Geez, can always count on you people for top notch journalism! ?

.@CNN @TheLeadCNN The fact that we have a presumably US citizen attacking the former Secretary of State should be the real focus.

For most of those who answered the question, Bush was the better shoe dodger:
@CNN @TheLeadCNN Bush and it isn't close.

But one suggestion for the “best dodge” winner wasn’t Bush or Clinton, but rather…
@TheLeadCNN I'm going with @CNN dodging the Leland Yee coverage.
