Out of all the gangsters, serial killers, mass murders, incompetent & crooked politicians, spies, traitors, and ultra left-wing kooks in all of American history -- have you ever wondered who the worst of the worst were? Well, we here at RWN wondered about that too and that's why we decided to email more than a hundred bloggers to get their opinions. Representatives from the following 39 blogs responded...
4ranters, Abode Of Amritas, The American Mind, Amish Tech Support, Balloon Juice, Betsy's Page, Catholic Samurai, Croooow Blog, Curmudgeonly & Skeptical, Daily Pundit, dcthornton.blog, Dean's World, Ed Driscoll, Drumwaster's Rants, Dumb Celebs, Fraters Libertas, Gocinatlanta, Gut Rumbles, IMAO, Ipse Dixit, Lead And Gold, Little Tiny Lies, North Georgia Dogma, Obiblg, Patio Pundit, Pejmanesque, Damian Penny, Right Thinking From The Left Coast, Right We Are, Right Wing News, Sasha & Andrew's Roundtable, Sgt. Stryker's Daily Briefing, Silent Running, Silflay Hraka, Sine Qua Non, Tom Conservative Vs. Amy The Ultra-Liberal Kitty Cat, Winds Of Change, The Yale Diva, Zogby Blog.
All bloggers were allowed to make anywhere from 1-20 selections. Rank was determined simply by the number of votes received. Also, it's worth keeping in mind that this was a fairly conservative group of bloggers and their selections reflected that. Also, I made a decision to combine the votes given to the Rosenbergs and Julius Rosenberg into one group since most people associate the two of them together. Some people may disagree with that decision, but I thought it was the best way to go.
Well that's enough about the rules -- without further adieu, the worst figures in American history are as follows (with the number of votes following each selection)...
Honorable Mentions: Ted Bundy (5), Jane Fonda (5), John Wayne Gacy (5), John Walker Lindh (5), Joe McCarthy (5), Michael Moore (5), Boss Tweed (5)
17) Franklin Delano Roosevelt (6)
