Who should I vote for for president in 2008?

You match up well with…

Barack Obama – 57% match

You must be ambitious and idealistic, like Barack Obama. Obama is a liberal democrat who, unlike his rivals, opposed the Iraq war from the start. With only 3 years in the Senate, his inexperience worries some and sometimes reveals itself in the debates, but he also has the charisma and popular support that the others lack.
John Edwards – 55% match

John Edwards is a progressive democrat with little legislative experience (6 years). He has noble goals accompanied with detailed plans of how to accomplish them. He believes that resources are best spent on poverty alleviation (in the U.S.), universal health coverage, and addressing global warming than on reducing the budget deficit or continue funding an unpopular war. He is the most populist and protectionist of the candidates and is the only one willing to admit that his plans will require more- not fewer taxes, but the bill will still be less than what the Iraq War is currently costing.
Chris Dodd – 54% match

Dodd is a liberal democrat who is a well-seasoned policy-maker. He has been in Washington since 1975 as a U.S. Representative and Senator and consistently receives thing between a 95-100% approval rating from Americans for Democratic Action and the National Committee for an Effective Congress. Unlike his Democrat counterparts, he believes that same-sex marriage and civil unions should be an issue left to states and supports free trade agreements. As a legislator, he is known for his work on expanding health care coverage to the uninsured, particularly children.

Take the test.

Or D) None of the above. I think the questions were a bit liberally biased, but, meh. None of those are getting my vote. The Whistler isn’t getting my vote, either.

    Ok, so we seem to be in the same boat here. I don’t like either of the candidates, so what do we do? Just not vote at all?

    I did the test and it said I was about to be squat humped by Ralph Nader.

    /Me worry no?
