Don't be too rough with each other! We're here to appreciate, and sometimes lightly rib, Tolkien's fantastic creation, and all of its derivative works. Arguments happen, but remember, in the words of Tolkien, that food and cheer and good song are what make a merrier world!

Sauron would win. Best case scenario the bomb destroys the tower. That shouldn't kill him though. His spirit would just become weak and wander around like it did in the past. Basically he would just have to rebuild himself all over again.
You could argue that it might kill him in the long run. He might be too weak to rebuild himself in time. Middle Earth changes so much after the bomb goes off that he loses his foothold over Mordor and consequently loses his method to grow.
Will middle earth be able to understand the concept of radiation? Is mordor now an untraversable land? Will they still be able to throw the ring into the mountain?
Hell I think nuking Mordor may be the biggest boon Sauron can get
Unless it just happens to destroy the One Ring along with it?
Which if the Ring were in the Shire and the bomb dropped onto Mordor seems unlikely, but just imagine Frodo and Sam having walked all the way up the mountain and right there at that moment the bomb drops...
What horrific irony that would be.
