Someone just pointed me to this online quiz where you answer a few questions about how you feel about certain issues and it shows you how all the 2008 Presidential candidate match up with you:

Interesting results...mine matched pretty closely with the way I was already leaning.

I'll check it out, but my position on gun control never gets me the right candidate.

Well, the good thing is, Hillary isn't first, the bad thing is, she's second.. RP is third, and I'm voting for him, so it's close. Hillary wants to invade Iran, that's just stupid and she lies constantly and isn't even really a dem.. bah.. but Bill Richardson? I guess these things score based on what you agree/disagree with and then the degree of what you care about it.. he still only got a 51, not very good, then again, I would be a terrible president because I'd do what's best for the people not the nation.

Agree most with Richardson and Kucinich. Least with Huckabee and Romney.

But then again, i won't be voting.

Oh and if anybody is interested in another test:

Heh, Huckabee believes the world is 6000 years old and thinks we should take everyone with aids and put them into camps. If he wins, I'm seriously out of here. I can handle all the other bad choices.

Well, I think that the political compass put me pretty close to where I belong, but I don't believe they know what they're talking about when they put Ghandi and the Dalai Lama next to my dot. Ghandi liked to sleep with young girls to "test his resolve" and the Dalai Lama wants to get his country back so that the priest caste can be in charge again and have the people of the country serve them. Look it up. The truth is out there. Those are not good people, Mother Teresa wasn't a good person either, but she doesn't fit in this discussion.

Here's my results for the political leaning test..

Well they estimated the political positions of those folks, obviously they didnt take the test themselves, but if they did, they probably would come out where they are estimated.

I had a 1.28, -1,38. So a little to the right, and a little to the libertarian.

Well, did they score them idealistically, or what they really believed? The Dalai lama would be all about government control, but since he sees himself as a benevolent dictator guy, he'd never put it like that.

here is the order of candidates it chose for me
mitt romney
duncan hunter
fred thompson

not bad. i would love to see duncan hunter pick up some steam but his hopes look dim.
