Poll question: In solidarity with Sarah Palin
Palin isn't the only poor vice presidential pick...but IMHO she is the all time dumbest...however to make her feel better, I thought it would be fitting to inform her of other bad vice presidents through out our history. Choose which you think has been the worst. And sorry folks..Richard the Dick Cheney is not allowed as a pick!

2. It's just an exercise

thank God she isn't part of the choices...the last thing we need is someone with the brain of a Palin and the heart of a Cheney!

3. Admiral Stockdale was pretty bad
He was Ross Perot's VP pick in 1992, if you don't remember. But they didn't win, of course, and we had one of the best VPs of all time for the next 8 years. Anyway, I voted for Quayle in this poll, but it was tough, some real doozies in that list.

5. The potted plant
didn't actually become VP, this poll is just for VP's who actually served in that capacity.

9. I wouldn't really give him the potted plant name

"A liberally educated person meets new ideas with curiosity and fascination. An illiberally educated person meets new ideas with fear."
"I never had a single conversation about politics with Ross Perot in my life; still haven't."

7. that's why I didn't put her or Cheney in this poll
Edited on Wed Oct-22-08 11:41 AM by norepubsin08
it would have been unfair to the rest of the candidates in the poll.
