Steve Jobs is 2007’s Face of Business

Stevie J.Look at that face! So charming, so adorable. Is it any surprise that Vinnie Jobserino (aka Steven P. Jobs) cleaned up at CNBC’s Face of Business ‘07 poll? None at all, say we. We mentioned the poll when it went up the other week, and while we’d like to pride ourselves on having something to do with Jobs’s tremendous victory, he probably didn’t need our help.

Just how badly did he crush the competition? Jobs garnered 78% of the vote, which is all the more impressive when you realize that the number two spot was held down by Chuck Prince, former Chairman and CEO of Citigroup, who picked up 6.9% of the vote. No, that’s not a misprint. The closest of Jobs’s peers were the boys at Google, Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Eric Schmidt, who slotted in at #4 with 3% of the vote. Look, you just can’t beat Steve Jobs. He’s like one of those unstoppable ’50s science-fiction movie giant ants or something. Just get out of his way or you’ll be trampled to death by the Jobsian Juggernaut (that’s his nickname from his wrestling days).
