Makes you wonder about Sauron's wits. All he needed to do was keep anyone off Mt. Doom, finish crushing Gondor, and find the Ring at his leisure. If anyone was a madman, it was Sauron

Actually, I think that was what Sauron tried to do. He wanted to crush Gondor, of course. But he never believed that anyone would dare to enter Mordor, try to venture to Mount Doom and throw the ring, which would give one of the good guys enough power to kick Sauron's *** and be ruler of the people of Middle-earth, into the fire.
Sauron would never think of anyone who wanted to destroy the ring, that's why Orodruin remained unguarded. Stupid anyway...
