2008’s winner for Best Politician, Sen. Charlie Justice

Times flies when you’re struggling to make ends meet, but it is rapidly approaching that time in each summer when a Tampa Bayite’s thoughts turn to … Best of the Bay!!

This year, as we expand and make voting for the best goods, services, places, people, restaurants, bars, strip clubs, etc. more fun and interactive, we’re going to start by asking you: What categories in People, Places and Politics (the equivalent of our News & Politics section, my personal bailiwick as your Political Whore) would you like to see in the balloting?

Here are a few of the classics and new CL staff ideas we hope to feature this year (after the jump):

Best Local Columnist
Best Local Hero
Best Local Politician
Best Local Sports Team
Best Local Troublemaker
Best Local TV Newsperson
Worst Local Politician
Worst Sports Coach
Best Beach
Best Building
Best Neighborhood, Hillsborough
Best Neighborhood, Pinellas

We’re finalizing the categories next Tuesday, so the deadline to add suggestions in the Comments section below is Mon., June 8 at 5 p.m.

And a reminder: we’re not looking  for who you think should win, just the category itself. Now get to work.
