It has been a rough couple of weeks for Sen. Larry Craig, but here’s some good news: Americans like him more than Michael Vick, Britney Spears and O.J. Simpson. Whew!

SurveyUSA polled 1,200 adults nationwide and asked them how much respect they have for various politicians and celebrities. Craig just barely squeaked out a victory over Vick, Spears and Simpson, but lost to Howard Stern, Don Imus and Barry Bonds.

1. Rudy Giuliani

2. Hillary Clinton

3. Barack Obama

4. John McCain

5. John Edwards

6. Fred Thompson

7. Mike Huckabee

8. Mitt Romney

9. Bill Richardson

10. Joe Biden

11. Ron Paul

12. Tom Tancredo

13. Sam Brownback
