Can’t decide what to dress up as for Halloween?
POLITICO’S Top 10 list of political costumes from 2009 can help.
Barack Obama
He’s perhaps the most obvious choice this year, which means you may run into a bunch of doppelgängers as you trick-or-treat. Grab Michelle and the First Puppy and go for a walk as the new Presidential Family this Halloween. Just make sure you've got Secret Service following close behind.

Sarah Palin
As long as you have a pair of sexy librarian glasses and an up-do, you almost don’t even need a mask. But they’re out there anyway. Optional accessories: a hunting rifle, a map of Russia — or Oprah Winfrey.
Hillary Clinton
Since she’s been on the national stage for quite some time, Hillary masks are easy to come by. But now that she’s secretary of state, her mask has made a resurgence. You could pair it with a Bill Clinton mask. But this time around, it might be more fun to tag along with an Obama — and shove each other as you fight for the candy.
John McCain
Anyone dressed in a McCain Mask could travel as a tableau: Add a Hillary character, and duke it out with an Obama. You may get more points for originality by having McCain fuss around with an elephant, standing in for the Republican Party. Or be McCain as half a couple — with Sen. Lindsey Graham. Michelle Obama For the new first lady, the mask is only half the battle. You also need to bring some guns, in the form of impressive arm muscles. Additional accessories for consideration include anything from J. Crew to some vegetables from the garden or, following her impressive performance at the White House last year, a hula hoop.
Bill Clinton
Whether you are relaxing at Camp David, or hitting the campaign trail with your wife, the Bill Clinton Mask will let you do it with a laid-back style. This realistic over-the-head mask is made of soft vinyl and showcases the famous former president's facial features and signature hairstyle. Glenn Beck Fox News’s pundit of the moment will have truly made it when he gets his own mask in mass production. For now, the one that’s out there is of the mocking, do-it-yourself variety. Try the Glenn Beck mask.
John Edwards
Edwards made a big comeback last year but not necessarily in a good way, thanks to continued questions about the paternity of his mistress’s daughter.

Dick Cheney
Thought he was a flash from the past? Think again. The man dubbed “Darth Vader” by some has stayed on the scene even though the Bushies handed over power to the Obama administration. His mask is sure to scare Democrats everywhere.
Mitt Romney
If you’re more interested in Republicans with political futures than with political pasts (Cheney), the Romney mask may be the one for you. Just make sure that, in keeping with Romney’s character, the mask doesn’t muss up your pretty hair.
