Default Yet another political quiz

http://www.speakout.com/VoteMatch/Senate2006.asp#sec0

It matches you to candidates and describes your political philosophy. This one actually seemed to describe me pretty well.

My top candidates were John Cox (who?) and Duncan Hunter at 63%, then Thompson at 60%. Of the GOPers with a shot at winning, all of them (McCain, Romney, Huck, Giuliani) were under 50%. no wonder I'm so dissatisfied with the field. My lowest match was Hillary (YES!) at 10%.

And I'm a Populist-Leaning Conservative.

All of the "candidate-matching" services out there yield such different results from one another. On the last one that I took, Mike Gravel was my #1; yet here he came in 17th place, with McCain #1 for the first time.

Matched me closest to both Alan Keyes and Mitt Romney equally.

I was more closely aligned with Fred Thompson and Duncan Hunter.

Dead last was a three-way tie between Kucinich, Obama and Mrs. Clinton.
