Sure, you care about the policy positions of the 2008 presidential aspirants, but be honest: You’ve also got a guilty hankering for some other details.

Like TV shows. The upcoming TV Guide, on newsstands Thursday, features the favorite TV shows of White House wannabees.

A sampling:

Hillary Clinton: “Grey’s Anatomy,” “American Idol” and “Dancing with the Stars.”

Barack Obama: His favorite TV character is “SpongeBob SquarePants, because SpongeBob is the show I watch with my daughters.”

John Edwards: “Boston Legal” (although he admits to liking Fred Thompson on “Law & Order”).


Dennis Kucinich:
Late-night comedy shows.


John McCain:
“Prison Break.”


Mitt Romney:
“Lost.”

Fred Thompson: “SportsCenter.”
