Them Crazy Veeps: The List So Far

UPDATE: I properly ranked Joe Biden at #8 after his term ended. This changed the entire numbering system. Due to formatting issues, I kept the numbers as they were in the individual posts, but this list now reflects the new numbering.

UPDATE 2020: Who knew Biden wasn't done? I certainly didn't. He didn't get elected as an incumbent, but #3 seems fair. And fucking up the pandemic gives Pence a boost up the bad list. Not Dick Cheney bad, but bad.

UPDATE JULY 2024: Kamala Harris just did exactly what a Vice President is supposed to do, step in when the president can't do the job. For taking over the re-election campaign in this unprecedented (ha) time, Harris gets a bump to the top 5.
