You definitely win the crazy cake with that one. Yikes, that would be a nightmare.

2 Scott H. Payne November 27, 2009 at 11:20 am: Note: I’m envisioning Beck/Palin running against Cheney in this scenario. I’d buy shares in popcorn if that were to happen.

Honestly I’d sort of like to see Cheney run. Just so he can be roundly rejected and humiliated.

I think Dick is smarter than that. Hence his “not a chance” comment.

5 greginak November 27, 2009 at 11:35 am: well if you think he is that smart then you just don’t know Dick.

While we’re speculating, man, wouldn’t Tom Wolfe/ Professor Irwin Corey be a wild ticket?

7 Jaybird November 27, 2009 at 12:31 pm: Beakman/Bill Nye.

We’d finally have ubiquitous nuclear power.

I’d like to see a Clark Kent/Bruce Wayne ticket to be honest with you.

9 Nob Akimoto November 27, 2009 at 12:34 pm

Run them against a hypothetical Steve Rogers/Tony Stark ticket…

10 greginak November 27, 2009 at 12:49 pm

i’d prefer a Picard/ Riker ticket myself.

11 Nob Akimoto November 27, 2009 at 1:02 pm

But Picard is French!

he’s a Federation citizen and apparently all us liberals types want a one world government.

And was Clark Kent ever naturalized? He’s not even from this planet and the Holy Founder’s never said people from other planets could become citizens.

13 Nob Akimoto November 27, 2009 at 1:15 pm

As far as government records show, Clark Kent is the natural son of Johnathan and Martha Kent. Let’s forget about all this Kal-El stuff for now…

14 jack of all tirades November 27, 2009 at 7:56 pm: Wasn’t Clark Kent from Kenya?

15 greginak November 27, 2009 at 1:20 pm

Ahhh haaa, so you are fine with falsifying government records. The next thing you know Venusians will be sneaking into the US just to have anchor babies.
