Gov. Ige in tie for least popular governor - TomK - 02-06-2020
I'm shocked to learn Ige didn't win the award outright. Is there really another governor as bad as Ige?

Don't worry, the next Governor will make Ige seem competent by comparison.

"nebbish"
One who is fearful and timid, especially in making decisions and plans, in discussions, debates, arguments, and confrontations, and in taking responsibility.
As in: " you knew he was a nebbish when you re elected him"

Interesting. The four most popular are Republicans. The four least popular are Democrats.

I’ve seen some of their candidates and elected officials. Apparently the bar is exceptionally low for voters in that Party.

BillyB - thank you for helping add to my vocabulary! I never heard that term before but it's perfect.

Nebbish is derived from Yiddish. It's one of many colorful words like putz, yutz, schmuck, and schlemiel. It's amusing to see the Putzmeister trucks, if you know one of the definitions of putz.
