Hey. Wassup, man?

No, in all seriousness, we're talking about politicians, not posters...and, yeah, Bernie Sanders and Lizzy Warren suck. Chris Dodd sucks, so does Dan Malloy. John Kerry. Barney Frank & Dan Cicilline. John Tierney. Chellie Pingree. New England has a lot of really awful leftists.

Now, New England does have some good leftists. I absolutely adore Joe Lieberman (please don't lynch me) and there are some 'worthy opponents' I have a deal of respect for, like Peter Shumlin, Carol Shea-Porter, John Lynch, or Jeanne Shaheen.

I agree completely. Elected representatives in New England are often horrible. Though I don't really hate Kerry or Frank. And I don't really hate Sanders and Warren either.

But there are still tons of scumbags you also left out. Like Jack Reed and Lincoln Chaffee, who are just total sleazebags. The latter isn't a Democrat, but sleaziness isn't a partisan trait.  Especially god damn Jack Reed.  him.

'New England leftists' are a diverse group. Consider the difference between Napoleon and Nathan, for instance.

Or Scott and Napoleon, if you wanna stay within the same state. The AF has a pretty diverse group of New Englanders. Ghost_white, Koenkai, Scott, Nappy, Nathan, etc...

I hate New England. I don't consider myself a New Englander at all. I simply have to live in this wasteland (climate and culture) due to temporary issues outside of my control. I will probably leave in around five years and never come back.

The fact that we have a harsh climate is part of what gives us our unique culture~!

My hometown actually has much much worse weather than New England. Where the winters can hover near -20 °C and the summers can hover around 30 °C. Monsoons ruin everything.

I still constantly bitch and moan about New England weather though.

Oh yeah, and I hate almost every single Utah Republican politician. There's one that I respect (the current Utah State Auditor because he took the bold step of actually looking into the finances of the legislature), but because he decided to do his job, he was beaten in his primary by one of the legislature's own attack dogs. In fact, the new GOP choice for State Auditor (John Dougall) sponsored and passed legislation that guts Utah's open-records law (the anti-open-record legislation was eventually repealed though), so his qualifications are negative for the job he wants.

But in any case, I despise each and every Utah GOP politician and refuse to vote for a single one (unless I accidentally vote for a school board or judge candidate that turns out to be Republican, since there's literally no info on them and the job is officially non-partisan).

Just to name a few (in no particular order):

My Political Hall of Shame
Howard Dean (probably my VERY least favorite)
Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Newt Gingrich
Rick Perry
Sarah Palin
Jim DeMint
Elizabeth Warren
Alan Grayson
Al Franken
Nancy Pelosi
Bill Clinton (more like a former politician)
Harry Reid
Barney Frank
Chris Dodd
John Kerry
Bernie Sanders
Chuck Schumer
Chris Coons
Maxine Waters

I hate just about every single Southern Republican politician (Palin being an exception, since she's not from the South), as well as most New England Democrats (Lieberman being an exception).

Scott Walker is my very least favorite, he's just annoying. Booker is a great person,  us i don't want him anywhere near the White House, Senate, or Governor's Mansion in NJ.

Paul Ryan, probably. I'd say Newt Gingrich if he was still a current politician. Both have these mythical images in the media has "intellectuals" despite it having utterly no evidence.

Also, please, please, people. Stop taking obvious bait from Vosem. He's always just waiting on someone to bite so he can expand on his cartoonishly caricatured Kid Neoliberal persona.

This one's fairly easy - Paul Ryan. A vapid right-wing lunatic with an entirely undeserved Serious Person image bestowed by a salivating media.

2. DWS (D-FL-She is just pure evil)
1. Lois Frankel (D-FL-Former Mayor of West Palm Beach, DWS mentor, my campaigns opponent)

You missed a spot (a South Florida district just up from those two)...

Anyone who speaks positively of Austrian economists and Neo-confederates (unsurprisingly this is a group with a great deal of overlap).

I pretty much find them all to be horrible, disgusting parasites of society. The worst parasite is probably Harry Reid followed closely by Joe Biden.
