Here's a quiz that you might enjoy...

ABC has a quiz, Match-o-Matic II, that tests you on which statements you agree more with, and at the end, tells you which candidate's positions you are more likely to relate to.

I was with McCain on every issue, and I wasn't even really thinking about who said what. I answered honestly, which I know I can have a problem with when it comes to quizzes that clearly have answers that are directed towards certain parties.

Anyway, enjoy! I want to pass this onto as many people as I can, including the hardcore liberals at my college. :)

Just think - a quiz based on WORDS and not ACTIONS, and Obama can still lose!
ha ha ha ha ha

They seem to have cherry-picked the most right-leaning of all Obama's waffles - and I still came down for McCain on all except two quotes.

Yeah, that was really odd. Some of the quotes were pretty similar and they chose an Obama quote for the immigration policies that sounded more conservative than McCain's quote did.

Yeah, that was one of the ones that I got on Obama's side. Immigration's not my biggest issue, but I think it's ridiculous that our borders are practically a sieve.

That reminded me about how much I dislike both candidates' environmental policies. :|

Me, too. Got to that question & was desperately hoping for a third option, because I hate both of those plans.

I thought the quotes were very similar in many of the questions -- and I actually agreed with Obama on three points. Granted, they were the waffley-est ones, but still... scary that I agree with anything he says!

I felt like I needed to take a shower after the immigration and emissions questions. Hell, I still might need one.

Only one I agreed with Obama on, about gay marriage. However, I suspect he and I disagree about how it should be left up to the states...

If you agree with McCain on the majority of these, does that make you a Maverick, a moderate, or a hard core conservative?

I matched all but 2, one of which was on immigration. I agree more with Rush Limbaugh's stance, which is scary because I don't consider myself to be that far right. ;-D
