Anyone else notice the disconnect between Hillary's quote and what they attribute to her?

My top 3 were Kucinich, Gravel, Obama, followed closely by Huckabee, then Clinton/McCain tied for 5th.

My idiot test was Thompson, McCain, then Giuliani.

I got Kucinich by a mile, then Gravel, then Obama as a distant 3rd.

I don't think the game is particularly useful though, because many of the most important issues to me aren't addressed.

people need to change the sliders before they post who they get.

even gay people i know admit that iraq/health care/tax reform are more important than same-sex marriage, and this seems to weigh them equally.

I get Romney, Guiliani, Hunter. When you look at Matrix view though, I'm all over the map. My political beliefs are a pretty mixed bag, but Romney is definitely dead last for me, and most republicans are way behind all the dems.

Paul, Gravel, Kucinich... 4th is Guiliani, but I'd never vote for him.

They should have weighed the answers of those who answered differently than you. For example, for the Iraq war, there are two reasons to stop funding the war (I think) both should score points.

The most surprising thing is the abortion issue was not mentioned in any questions. I'd guess at least 30% of all voters will make up their mind primarily on that alone. The militant pro-choicers and the militant abolitionists would never choose a candidate against that no matter what their stances are on other issues.
