How about Ralph Nader, butterfly ballots and the Supreme Court's conservative bloc.

Someone has to mention Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld, Bush-Cheney-Ashcroft, and Bush-Cheney-Rove.

There. Now on to more creative ideas.

Is it too "easy" to suggest W's 1st Term, W's 2nd Term and a McCain/Palin Administration?

Sarah "Caribou Barbie" Palin, "Tailgunner" Joe McCarthy, Michele "Anti-Americans in Congress" Bachmann

1. Religious Certainty

2. Unbridled Greed

3. A Stifled and Intimidated Media

Obama

Pelosi

and Reid.

(Reid???!! How did say that with straight face)

BOOO!

Scary.

Scalia-Roberts-Alito

I'd add Clarence Thomas, but that would make four.

Cheney, Condi Rice, Rumsfeld

1. George W. Bush, garden rake, nuclear launch codes.

2. Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, bag of cheetos. (C'mon, you know they'd fight over it like cats and dogs!)

3. Bill O'Reilly, loufah, any facts about anything at all.

4. Barack Obama, block of kryptonite, league of archvillains.

5. Sarah Palin, Dan Quayle, the ghost of Spiro Agnew.

Sarah Palin, Mel Gibson, Ben Stein

Because in any threesome there's one nutcase, and if you don't know who it is, it's probably you!

Sarah Palin

The First Dude

Her Hair Stylist

The Jonas Brothers. No, not for their current assault on our tween daughter's wallets, not even for the bizarre leather pants and puffy shirts. In 2038, when Hannah Montana runs for President on the "Best of Both Worlds" campaign, you know she'll stock her cabinet full of Jonases and underwear models. We may not be able to stop her rapid ascent to world domination, but there's still hope to stop the JBs......

1. Dick Cheney

2. Empty toilet-paper roll

3. The original Constitution

Actually, I wonder how they managed to avoid using the term "Troika".

Any three random spectators at a Sarah Palin rally.

Paris Hilton, Sarah Palin, a locked room with video streaming live forever.

Sweet fancy Moses, can you IMAGINE?

Bush, Dick, and John

George W. Bush, sudden national crisis, stick of chewing gum

Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Larry Craig

John McCain 1979

John McCain 1987

John McCain 2008

President Palin, her replacement for Justice Stevens, and your rights.

Your rights are gonna be sore in the morning.

Voting for Bush, voting for Bush again, and then voting for McSame.

Whenever Republicans bring up this idea that having a unified government is bad, they somehow manage to avoid giving the most recent -- and most illustrative -- example of it.

What percentage of Americans can even describe what checks and balances are? Wasn't some research recently done that reflected as much? People mistakenly attributed way too much law-making power to the executive branch.

After working for many years with high school students and college freshmen, I am not surprised at these findings. Here in New Jersey the idea of a social studies exam as part of state graduation requirements was kicked around but then scrapped for reasons that weren't clear. Too bad - the practice test they tried out had a lot of good stuff on it. We are at a point of functional illiteracy when it comes to basic civics, government and political history.

1. Faith-based politics

2. Compliant media

3. Disengaged electorate.

Or

1. American exceptionalism

2. Great power

3. Insufficient restraint.

The real danger will come when the McCain campaign starts to include the phrases "prevent socialist takeover" and "whatever it takes" in the same speech.

Sarah Palin - a Brain - a microphone

Sarah Palin - empty head - the Red States

Sarah Palin - microphone - racists

Sarah Palin - John McCain - On older John McCain

Sarah Palin - anything - anything

Ann Coulter - Bill O'Reilly - Rush Limbaugh

Chevelle, Tweaker, and Zamboni.

Faith, ignorance, guns.

1. Republicans in charge (Executive & Legislative)

2. Republican Supreme Court

3. All-powerful Faux News

...Cindy McCain and Karl Rove haunted by the Ghost of Molly Ivins in a public restroom at the Supreme Court while Joe is fixing a toilet.

mortgage-backed security (MBS), Collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), and Greed

Okay, what about a Sarah Palin / Sean Hannity / Ashley Todd love fest? So scary.

big oil, big pharma, big ag

Since at no point this year has it looked like the Republicans would win either the House or the Senate this is another desperate attempt (sports term = Hail Mary) by McCain.

The ghosts of Ayn Rand, Billy Graham, and Ronald Reagan

Curly, Larry, and Moe. We cannot have them running the country without national health care and what are the chances of that happening.

Dick Cheney / a loud, subservient media / sheep people

• Literal interpretation of every word in the constitution AKA the no-choice interpretation
• Literal interpretation of every word in the bible AKA the no-gays interpretation
• Illiteral interpretation of science AKA the liberal godless elite's bible

1. Drinking tequila,

2. Thinking 'bout old girlfriends,

3. Putting faith in polls (especially "leaked" exit polls!).

Can it be November 5th yet, please? I can't stand it much longer!

It's obvious to me: John McCain, an A1-Skyraider, and an open-air Obama rally.

Sarah Palin, William Kristol,Rich Lowry. Ewwww.

religious fundamentalism (any variety)

a charismatic personality (Palin)

universal suffrage (otherwise a good thing)

Sarah Palin, Aaron Burr and a piece of raw meat.

Charles DeGaulle, Shelly Winters, Bob Dole

1. Bush re-elected in 2008

2. Bush elected in 2004

3. Bush becomes president in 2000
