Who was the worst liberal TV character?
My vote goes to Mike "Meathead" Stivic of "All in the Family." He could be just as stubborn, one-sided, pompous, and bigoted as Archie. And self-righteous. Still, it was a great show.

1. Hmm.
I dunno. Jerri Blank, from 'Strangers with Candy.'

She was liberal on some things, but not liberal on others.

Hmm.. a float of percocet jimmies.. lol..

5. I came to really dislike her weekly rants...
...you could set your watch by them: "Hm. 22 minutes into the show - time for the Julia Sugerbaker rant."

3. I agreed with him but I always thought that Hawkeye Pierce
was more or less a juvenile asshole.

4. Either Alan Colmes or Twiki from Buck Rodgers
It's a toss up.

12. That image is pretty funny
thanks for sharing...don't mean to be off topic.

Not certain I am comfortable with the worst liberal, but perhaps the most bleeding heart or overtly liberal. I would give it to the show, Maude .

13. Oh yeah.
I can just hear Edith's fingernail-on-a-chalkboard voice screeching "Glllloooorrria!" How could I have forgotten that?
