TV or movie characters--their fictional political bent
Lucy might have been a democrat, but I'm sure Desi was a republican. Ralph Kramden was likely a pub, but his best friend Ed Norton was a Democrat. Charlies' Angels? Charlie had to have been a pub, but Bosley was likely a Dem.

Jack, Cissy and Janet were obviously Dems, but the Ropers and Furley were probably Pubs.

What political bent are some of your favorite characters? The obvious ones, like on West Wing or other shows don't count because we know what they are. But take a couple or more other characters and try to determine what their political philosophy might be.

1. Number Six was a liberal

Damn near everybody else in The Prisoner was a fascist.

Not sure I can agree about Charlie. Yeah he had money but he spent it helping people. That will get you thrown out of most conservative groups. :-)

2. Sandie on the OC
Most def a Dem. Was a PD. Julie Cooper, a Rep. Which is really funny bc Sandie is an upstanding guy and Julie is supposed to be a tramp.

They live in a collective and all think alike. Freakin' scary.



Resistance is futile.

4. Fred Mertz would undoubtedly be a Republican, but Ricky?
I'm not so sure about that.
