...and find out with whom you have the most in common AND the least.

Most like me:

1. Ron "Droopy Dog" Paul
2. Michelle Bachmann (snif, snif...)
3. Newt Gingrich



Least like me:

Obama & Huntsman (frick & frack were tied for last)

The irony with me is that the last time I voted, it was for John "Anybody but Bush" Kerry.

Only because Hugo Chavez wasnt included Fuzz. Otherwise you would have had a much higher match ratio.

So who was it?

3/11 for Gingrich, Paul, and Romney

But really, since all these guys (with the obligatory exclusion of Ron Paul) changes their stance as the wind blows, this entire thing is rather meaningless. Hell, most of the candidates themselves don't know their positions until their puppet masters come a calling.

I don't know about that. It seized me by my subconscious short hairs & convinced me to get off the fence.
I'm an unabashed Ron Paul supporter now- whether he runs as a Republican or third party candidate. This country needs a good flushing.

I like Huntsman but I also like oranges and frilly clothing. I have not taken the test though. I'm afraid it's a trap to controll my thinking much like the flu shot.

The questions are rigged to push you to the Repugnecrap's (One party sometimes called Republican other times Democrat) candidate, Romney. How you weight (Importance) each question really changes the results. No questions about confidence or changing positions or 'plasticity' factor.

Hover your mouse over the issues boxes underneath each candidate and you might change your mind.

No surprise. Ron Paul 7/11. Perry 3/11.

Obama 1/11 scored higher then Romney 0/11, and was tied with Gingrich and Huntsmen.

Interesting theory because I found them to be rigged alright- but in the direction of Ron Paul.

I experimented by responding with a different set of answers each time. Paul was ALWAYS in the top four. Santorum only came up once in the top 3 btw with Paul at #2 of course. On my final attempt, I selected extreme left wing solutions & FINALLY got Obama as #1- followed by Ron Paul (AGAIN!) at #2 & then Michelle Bachmann!?

Wonder if USA Today is purposely manipulating the data so that the results make Ron Paul a viable (and the logical) opponent for Barack Obama?
Oh, and I never got Mitt Romney among the top 3.Think

I can only conclude the site is part of a conspiracy suppressing what is clearly the best answer; "None of these clowns."

I already get tons of political spam from both parties. Each email contains a dire warning of the end of times should I choose not to send them money.
