I had Richardson, but I probably answered neither to more than half the loaded, extreme questions. Hell, most of the questions I DID answere disagree with his stated opinions. The fact that Obama was third on my list is a bit telling to me about how accurate this "test" really is. If Obama was on fire I wouldn't take a Giuliani on him to put it out.

Thanks, bsdaddict, I really like surveys like this. As several others commented, this started out with lots of Neither answers.

Judging from what I know about some candicates, I was amazed that supposedly I am 100% for Hillary, and the next four preferences also are Democrats.

I thought I was more Republican?

Clearly I have a lot of homework to do before the 2008 election.

Of course, most of the options were too simplistic.

Most of the questions were too loaded. There were 2 questions I didn't want to answer because I didn't agree with any of the choices.

A very poorly written survey, in my opinion. Many of the issues were worded in such a way that I couldn't agree with either choice, being forced repeatedly to choose "Neither".

i have to agree with sabre, and laser on this one.

there were a few that are very poorly worded. I think I only ended up answering 2 or 3 "neither", most I just had to reread a couple times. The tax one, "raise taxes and/or lower spending..." vs. "not concerned with the budget" was one of those. My first instinct was neither, but then I noticed the "OR lower taxes..." also confused why they have to word things like "do you support the positions of this organizatiuon...". anyhoo, I didn't write the dang thing...
