Who is the very worst Governor in the country?

[cali]

So many choices. Apologies if your candidate didn't make it into the poll. there are only so many spaces....

Edit: By popular demand, I'm adding an all of the above and more option- which means I'm taking out (pretty randomly) one of the current candidates.

Really, the point of the poll was just a bit of black humor.

[cliffordu]

1. "....All of the above?..."

[Laxman]

45. So Hard to Pick

Its like going out to the dumpster to pick out the smelliest piece of garbage. I would love it to be our beloved Governor Fred Flintstone here in NJ. (yabba dabba doo) However, there is just so much good competition for the (dis)honor.

[RC]

2. The governor of Kansas is missing

[cali]

4. Sorry about that. Brownback is a contender.

[babydollhead]

3. Where is my terrible Governor? Pennsylvania's Corbett

[cali]

5. as I said, the poll only has so many spaces.

[Myrina]

6. what about the witch from Arizona?

:shrug:

[cali]

11. I know. I know. This is cracking me up.

I knew the response I'd get for not putting up more of them. I only wish I could.

[Tx4obama]

24. Brewer definiately should have been included in the poll.

She's a huge nut and her 'death panels' in Arizona are criminally disgusting!

[flvegan]

7. Gotta keep it local...Rick Scott.

[w8liftinglady]

8. Rick Perry f%cked Texas with a glistening smile on his face.

[Thunderstruck]

18. That would have been my vote.

[Loki]

27. Third vote for mr. perry here.

What a smarmy piece of shitwork he is.

[Thunderstruck]

31. Watch out...

In this warped reality, he could be the Regressive's next nominee for president, though I think Obama would trounce him. But I suspect a Diebold election this time so we would be wise not to be content.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

49. He'd be my pick too.

It's a shame our Democrats left the state in an attempt to block our being screwed over before it was the cool thing to do. :(

[Scurrilous]

9. *cough*

Him.

[cali]

17. oh, yeah. crazy florida guy. sorry.

[Faygo Kid]

19. Amazing that Scott was left off the list.

Right now, it's Snyder taking the lead, and justifiably so.

[Tx4obama]

10. Walker, Snyder, Kasich, Brewer(AZ), Barbour, Perry(TX), Scott(FL), ALL of the GOP govs! n/t

[hobbit709]

12. ALL of the above and then some.

[LynneSin]

13. Seriously - where is the "All of the Above" option

I pick that one!

[ClassWarrior]

14. No Jerry Brown?

That means there's no voting option for the unquestioning Obama supporters.

NGU.

[Tx4obama]

23. Brown is not has radical and insane like the GOP'ers! n/t

[louis-t]

15. Michigan well represented here, I see.

The "Emergency financial manager" bill that stupidass is going to sign into law is more than just a way to kill civil service unions. It is a way to sell off municipal assets to whomever he wants, while paying one of his buddies as much as he wants to "manage" the selloff.

[csziggy]

16. I know there aren't enough spaces, but I have to live under Prick Scott

But I voted for Rick Snyder since his new dictatorial mandate has to be one of the worst pieces of legislation I have ever heard of in this country.

[rzemanfl]

20. Where is Rick Scott the thief of Florida? n/t

[RockaFowler]

40. I see he's with all of the above

He should have had his own spot

[Ken Burch]

21. Caribou Barbie's successor up here, Sean Parnell, is a sleeper contestant for that title

Parnell not only joined the anti-life lawsuit in opposition to the healthcare bill, but he is also pushing legislation to give oil companies a cumulative $2 Billion dollar tax cut in the hopes that they MIGHT do more exploration in the state(a cut that would force massive reductions in social spending and in revenue sharing to Alaskan cities and towns).

Sean Parnell is a classic example of the "it's the QUIET ones you have to keep an eye on" theory.

[Bandit]

22. You didn't even list my governor, Sean Parnell

He wants to give the oil industry two billion dollars so they will keep doing what they have been, while making record profits, and at the same time cutting every social program especially education...

[lpbk2713]

25. Rick Snott, Robin Hood in reverse.

And nowhere near as intelligent as Robin Hood.

[dkofos]

26. What, perry didn't make the list.

[drmeow]

28. I know she's been quiet for a while

but Jan Brewer ... and there's no hope for a recall!

[Hugabear]

29. How could you possibly omit THIS governor?

[cali]

35. arrg, my eyes. would you scott partisans please, pretty please stop posting

pictures of the crazy fucker?

[Riftaxe]

30. Your missing 41 options (nt)

[Brigid]

32. Scott Walker. No contest.

The man sounds like Ghadafy.

[Casandia]

33. I love this!

But then, my gov'ner is winning.... weeeeee!!!

[cali]

37. lol. welcome to DU.

[KamaAina]

34. Depends. What day of the week is it?

:eyes:

[KamaAina]

36. How about we vote them off the island one by one?

starting with the one closest to sanity.

Of the above list, that'd be Nikki Haley (SC). Pretty bad, to be sure, but she just isn't in the elite class with the others, or even write-ins like Florida's Scott.

[cali]

38. sounds good.

agree, some of the others make Haley look like a states(wo)man. or something.

:rofl:

[TBF]

39. Wow it's a sad day when Rick Perry (TX) doesn't even make the worst governor list. nt

[Carolina]

41. so true!

About the "all of the above" choice!

Which brings us to the sad state of affairs that these horrors are in office because the whole system is corrupt. It takes too much money to run, and good people --truly good people-- are averse to running because of stilted, stupid scrutiny of their/their family members' personal lives. Plus the media makes a game (horse race) out the process with focus on abortion, gay rights... but no GENUINE attention to healthcare, housing, education, jobs, clean energy...

[GreenPartyVoter]

42. LePage was foisted on my state thanks to plurality voting. *angry sigh*

[Brigid]

43. Is there a way to . . .

E-mail this thread to every Governor in the country? :evilgrin:

[Scuba]

44. I'm from Wisconsin, but had to vote for Snyder...

...even a lower lowlife than self-proclaimed diety Walker.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

46. What about Mary Fallin?

You forgot that (insert the worst derogatory female word here).
Duckie

[MrScorpio]

47. I have to go with our own fool, Snyder

The man is committing a corporate raid on the state of Michigan.

I'm pretty much expecting the Great Lakes to owned by a Koch Brothers by the time he's done

[TheKentuckian]

48. Snyder is my current dumpsterfuck champion.

This state of affairs is unacceptable. You can't look at this list of villains, consider how many didn't make it, and not actually have a red alert feeling flow through you.

We are strategically in a crappy spot. Too many holes in the dam, we got shit busting lose in every direction. Barbarians at the gate and Third Way trojans eating away from within.

Play time is way over and there is little left to "compromise".

[tallahasseedem]

50. I voted for my "Governor"

Christie. However, I did come here from Florida so I was screwed either way.
