Ridiculous. Many of the questions did not have answers that I was in favor of so I had to pick the lesser of five evils.

Quite true. This was especially true for me regarding immigration.

Esad, what answers would you have liked to see?

One example:

Question #6 - "What's the best way the federal government can get more people covered by health insurance."

All the answers are just degrees of bad. And, why is it the federal government's duty to get more people covered by health insurance? Asking this question assumes that it's obviously something the feds should be doing, which I strongly disagree with. What's next; "What should the fed's do to make sure people wipe properly after taking a dump?"

Many of the questions are along these lines. They assume, that the question is something that the federal government should be directly involved and then give 4-5 poor choices about something that doesn't need to be fixed or is a non-issue.

Gravel, Kucinich...McCain?

I did not know how to answer the last question about which is the most important position to have held for a presidential candidate. I don't think holding any of those positions would make a person more qualified than someone else just because they were in that office.

esad,

For the health care question you hate there was an option to pick something along the lines of open up health care to competition. Essentially you can pick a response that has the government getting out health care. You're looking at this from a very cynical perspective, I thought this quiz was allowed for a variety of legitimate responses.

Re: Cool USA Today Presidential match game
 

Hmm my earlier response got lost.

Regular: Giuliani, Thompson, Romneh

Idiot: Paul, Biden, Edwards.

Neither one a great surprise, except I think too much crediblity is being given to Clinton's insincere plays to the middle.

Re: Cool USA Today Presidential match game
 

Kucinich
Gravel
Obama

Re: Cool USA Today Presidential match game
 

1) Ron Paul
2) Rudy Giuliani
3) Mike Gravel

4th looked like Fred Thompson
5th looked like Dennis Kucinich

I'm very confused.

Re: Cool USA Today Presidential match game
 

I got Paul, Rudy, Thompson.

I sort of threw up a little when Rudy was my second best candidate. Esp. because it's true.

I'm hoping Copernicus takes this test so he ends up with Pol Pot, Stalin, and Mao.
