Presidential candidates and their airplanes

With all the recent news about Super Tuesday in the US, I thought it would be interesting to see what airplanes the candidates are using. Apparently, Democratic front-runners Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are both chartering Boeing 737-800s from ATA (Clinton has already dubbed hers "Hill Force One"). On the Republican side, now-former candidate Mitt Romney used a chartered Xtra Airways Boeing 737-400 (and even though he also chartered an Embraer regional jet from ExpressJet for press use, the press was billed for it); John McCain uses a jetBlue Embraer 190 (with DirecTV in every seat, of course). And the lucky one of these candidates will be able to use Air Force One next year...
