1. Thats a tough one. lol.

naughty DSB!

3. He was a bit of a Lothario, so he might have been drawn to

Clinton. Then again, he invented the post office, so the candidate with the greatest support of the post offices might win his vote.

6. I have read he was quite the Ladies Man...

I suspect they were drawn to his towering intellect and not his expansive girth.

10. He was not the sort of guy to go after the young hottie.

He knew how to pick 'em. He was a flatterer, he liked stimulating, er, conversation, and he liked to pay ATTENTION to women (and he had a good sense as to who might return the favor). He liked good conversation, witty repartee, and a little gossip. He lived life, make no mistake!

One feels a bit sorry for the woman he left behind--she spent more time without him than with...but maybe she preferred it that way. For every lid there is a pot, I guess...!

4. Martin O'Malley of course, because of his prolific plans, optimism, and energy.

[Floyd Steinberg]

5. Bernie.

Post office.

7. This thread was a joke

not for serious debate.

8. "You put me on money?"

Next time I see him up in Philly, I'll ask him. There's an official Ben Franklin impersonator, and his answers to tough questions are pretty good.

9. Vermin Supreme probably.

Franklin was like that.

11. I remember reading that Benjamin Franklin had a great sense of humor.
