1. Robertson/Falwell would definitely be the worst.

3. So hard to chose ...
"All of the above"? :shrug:

Honestly, any of them could do some serious damage. I guess perhaps Falwell/Robertson would be the worst.

4. Do you mean hardest for us to pummel, or worst for this country
in the unlikely event they were to be (honestly) elected?

5. They will run Jeb Bush in 2008, but Cheney won't run again.
Cheney is too old. They will want someone younger.

6. In terms of governing,
The Robertson/Falwell ticket is the worst.

However, they will never get elected as they would not gain support of many mainstream republicans. The Jeb/Cheney and Frist/Santoroum tickets are the worst as they have a better chance of actually getting elected.

7. Got to go with Gingrich and Miller
A former History professor who doesn't know anything about History and a former Dixiecrat who's a not-so closeted Republican.

10. Falwell is a Moonie hypocrite who claims to be a "Democrat"
Edited on Sat Feb-26-05 04:10 PM by independentchristian
Check out this hypocrite getting tongue tied:

From Meet the Press:

MR. RUSSERT: And we are back. Welcome all.

Reverend Falwell, let me start with you. You wrote a Falwell Confidential, a newsletter memo out right before the elections, and you said this, "It is a responsibility of every political conservative, every evangelical Christian, every pro-life Catholic, every traditional Jew...and everyone in between to get serious about re-electing President George Bush."

Why was it a responsibility, a duty of Christians to vote for George Bush?

DR. JERRY FALWELL: Because I'm a Democrat. I don't vote Republican. I vote Christian. And I believe that he is pro-life, pro-family, pro-Israel, strong national defense, faith-based initiatives for the poor, et cetera. And George Bush fits the criteria for all of them. John Kerry met little or none of those criteria...

...MR. RUSSERT: On "Desperate Housewives," Newsweek says that the creator of "Desperate Housewives" is a conservative, gay Republican.

REV. SHARPTON: That's what I was going to say. Do you find that...

DR. FALWELL: Well, the fact that he's a gay Republican means he should join the Democratic Party.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6601018/

So, the hypocrite says that "He's a Democrat" and then he in spite says that someone who's lifestyle he does not agree with should join the Democratic Party implying that the party that he just said he is one of is immoral, he's an ignorant, shortsighted, hypocrite.

12. I nominate John McCain/Rick Santorum for worst ticket
Edited on Sat Feb-26-05 04:14 PM by independentchristian
Two Moonies on a ticket that could actually win is not a good thing.

21. Either #4 or #8. On the bright side, we kick both of those tickets'
asses.
