Some political 'fun'.

http://www.vajoe.com/candidate_calculator.html

Gravel was my first with Kucinich as close 2nd.

Just for fun I voted yes to all the questions and got Guiliani as my choice. When I voted no to all the questions, Ron Paul was my man!

    You're lying. As indiviuated as you think you may be, if you gave an honest answer other than "no" and "low" you might post the results.

    Well, if I clicked on "no" and "Low" for every answer, I'll bet I get something very similar.

    I checked "unsure" and "low" for every answer and even though every candidate scored 0.0% by that course, Biden turned up my leading candidate.

    Lol.

    Yeah, thats not what happened at all. I clicked on honest answers for all of them, and admittedly i didnt change many of my priorities from "medium" (although i did change some of them- to high, and low).

    But yeah, thats the list it gave me, based on my truthful answers.

    Alright then. I believe you. All the candidates pretty much suck and your answers must have been the most honest of them all.

    Except for Kucinich.

    Other than your stated lean toward McCain, you come across as more American than I.

    This disturbs me. :)

    I love the Twins infinitely and forever...
    In the meantime I've got to back the Tribe to represent the Central and the AL in the post season. They're a worthy team to back. They're a great bunch of guys. A good team. An underdog, too.

    Kind of like Kucinich. And they're both from Ohio. :)

    Speaking of fighters, so is Hippiemom.
