Abbott and Costello (compliments of the Toronto Star), but I like it.
 
Mutt and Jeff might be quite appropriate based on how they are described in Wikipedia: Augustus Mutt is a tall, dimwitted racetrack character - a fanatic horse-race gambler who is motivated by greed. Mutt has a wife, known only as Mrs. Mutt (Mutt always referred to her as "M'love") and a son named Cicero. Mutt first encountered the half-pint Jeff, an inmate of an insane asylum who shares his passion for horseracing, in 1908. They appeared in more and more strips together until the strip abandoned the horse-race theme, and concentrated on Mutt's other outlandish, get-rich-quick schemes. Jeff usually served as a (sometimes unwilling) partner.
 
Once upon a time, we had David Crombie, (William) Davis, and Paul Godfrey, at the same time. My mother, not a conservative bless her, nicknamed them "Puddin' Head, Pie Face, and Liver Lips", respectively.

So what lovely little names can you think of in the dreaded but possible scenario of Harper, Hudak, and Ford?

(My mind still boggles at this prospect).
