I think I'll choose Keamy!

Keamy enjoyed being horrible and killiing people whereas I don't think any of the others have.

Widmore's a bit of an unknown quantity but if he has a daughter like Penny he can't be all bad can he?

Ben seems bad sometimes; but he does good things as well.

It's deffo Keamy I would least like to have as an enemy. He'd not only kill me, but enjoy doing it too!

I have a hard time imagining Keamy managing to be emotionally involved enough with anyone or anything to actually have enemies, rather than targets. He's more like a bulldozer, not even a torturous bulldozer, and I can't really consider a bulldozer a worthy enemy.

On that basis, I'll go with Ben.

I think Keamy. Ben's more into mind games but if you worked out what he was doing you'd at least have a chance and he wouldnt be the worst 'enemy'. Keamy is just heartless and I think he'd would be your last enemy because he'd kill you without thinking twice. Sayid isnt that bad he's done bad things but he's also done good things and I think you'd be fine with Widmore if you had him on your side and we've not seen much of what he can do he just gets others to do his job so he (as himself) isnt that bad.

Those are some good answers, but I think if you paid Keamy enough money he would switch sides. I am going to go with Ben, since he would make your life Hell if you got on his bad side. Ben is intelligent, ruthless, and controls the smoke monster.

But Keamy could always go back on the deal couldn't he? Once he'd got the money he could just shoot you!

With Ben you could just say: "I love the island. I never want to leave!" He'd be OK then!

^^ NO, we have seen good in Keamy.... he helped Desmond out. He was very kind to him. And Keamy doesn't have an awful bugg-eyed look like Ben.

But was it really good ?, I seem to remember it was just him kinda following orders and transporting Desmond to the doctor . I don't think he really did it out of the goodness of his heart - If he has one !!

Keamy didnt help Desmond out, he locked him in with Minkowski. Keamy wouldnt switch sides for money he's pure evil
We've seen a good side to Ben and you'd be fine if you knew his game.

Ben may have controlled the Smoke Monster once but who controls it now? Was it ever put back in it's cage?

Ben can't help his eyes! But Keamy has a choice in whether he wishes to be murderous or not.

I think I'll have to go with Ben, because with Keamy you pretty much know what you're getting: he's a straightforward killer with certain objectives in mind that he will do anything to fulfill. If you can discover those objectives much of the battle against him is won, and then you can get on with defending yourself against his bullets and brute force.

Whereas with Ben it's a lot more difficult to work out what he's thinking and what he wants, and if you get on his bad side you can't confidently predict that he'll come running towards you firing a gun or trying to blow something up like Keamy most likely would. Ben would mess with your head as well, and you'd never know where you'd stand with him. He's also a lot cleverer then Keamy.

But Ben would love me and we'd never be enemies, so I don't have to worry about any of this

Where's Locke? He'd literally stab you in the back if the talking toad told him to.

Erm, why has no one said Charles? Widmore has the power and money to squash you by employing a Keamy: boom.

Thats just IMO.
