I think you are being unfair to a lot of these choices. RC Cola rules! And, if Cheney was going to pick a lousy president to compare to Rumsfeld, he could have done a lot better (or worse) than Van Buren. James Buchanan, for example, who preceded Lincoln,was a lot worse than Van Buren.
I was going more for mediocrity rather than absolute awfulness. Otherwise his favorite soft drink would be Fresca and his favorite game, Monopoly.
Actually, Munchkin is quite a good game. It may not be the best game, but it is a far cry better than the Worst-Case Scenario Boardgame.
Adiv, I will grant you that Munchkin is better than WCS. :-)
Given the huge number of excellent games available(check out boardgamegeek if you never have), Munchkin lies in the middle of the pack for me. Not horrible, but not great. Your mileage may vary, of course, and Munchkin does have a large number of fans.
I considered jumping to the defense of Derek Smalls, but thought better of it.
Sincerely,
