A quiz to see what candidate you match up with. I was a little shocked by my results. My 1st match was Newt (no shock there) 2nd was Michelle Bachman (WTF, I'd rather eat a dog turd than vote for that goon) and my 3rd was Ron Paul (I was a little surprised by this, I like Ron Paul, but I figured Romney would fall into my top 3 ahead of Ron Paul)

Obviously it's not super accurate because it doesn't weigh the importance of certain issues over the other, but I thought it was interesting.
Re: Presidential candidate match up
[QUOTE]My 1st match was Perry! WTFF??? And my 3rd match was Obama! WTFFFFFFF???? Mit Romney was my 2nd match, and the only one I would even remotely consider voting for. I'm so confused by this. I knew I was a pretty shitty conservative with regards to social issues, but PERRY? REALLY?

Perry? We can no longer be friends. <div> ;)</div>
[QUOTE]I know, Sarah! I can no longer be friends with myself! I'm dying to know which questions I answered in his favor. I'm so upset right now. Everything I thought I knew about myself has been shattered. SHATTERED.

Meh, no worries. His stance changes every day based on who gives him more money. Try again tomorrow.
I wonder which Romney I'd be voting for if it came down to my third choice, lol.

1. Obama
2. Bachman
3. Huntsman
...how does that happen?
I also like the one at ontheissues.org (I like that site in general), but even that gives me Perry first (another wtf)...I plan on voting for Romney, so go figure.

[QUOTE]1. Obama 2. Hunstman 3. Romney The second two were far behind in matches.<strong> I also had a few questions where I wanted to put none of the above. Particularly the gay marriage and border questions.</strong>

These and the abortion questions were the ones I wanted none of the above on. There were a few where I wanted a combination of the choices offered. I guess I've just got a lot of grey area when it comes to my stance.
Sounds about right.

On that one I got a tie for Bobby Jindal and Newt Gingrich.
2. Huntsman
3. Bachman?!?!?!?!
There was another one of these (where you could weight issues according to their importance) on PC&E last week. I'll see if I can find it.

2) Romney
3) Bachman
I don't know who Mitt Romney is, but I can sure as hell guarantee I'd never vote for Bachman. I will admit though that a few of the questions I had no idea what they even meant, or didn't understand the answers so I just guessed. And others, like the gay marriage, were all sucky choices.

Bobby Jindal is another one that we couldn't be friends on. He's just like Perry. He sways which ever way the money blows.

SO if Barak was White, you'd vote for him. That's racist. :P

Yeah, I'm not crazy about him. He doesn't take a firm stand on much of anything, or at least not for long.
Celles, on the one you posted I was almost dead even with all three Ron Paul 49.1, Gingrich and Huntsman at 47.2. That's probably a lot closer to reality, with having the option to weight the issues.
