Default Select A Candidate

This has probably already been done. But, if you're interested, the link below is a quick questionnaire that helps identify which candidates share your views. After you submit your responses, ignore the advert and click "HERE" at the top of the page.

Apparently, my views are best represented by ugly candidates with little to no chance of winning.

1. Theoretical Ideal Candidate (100%)
2. Kent McManigal (campaign suspended) (67%) Information link
3. Dennis Kucinich (60%) Information link
4. Ron Paul (59%) Information link
5. Alan Augustson (campaign suspended) (58%) Information link
6. Mike Gravel (58%) Information link
7. Christopher Dodd (57%) Information link
8. Barack Obama (56%) Information link
9. John McCain (51%) Information link
10. Michael Bloomberg (says he will not un)(51%)

Because right now to me no conservative is putting forth a comprehensive plan that makes a lot of sense to me. Just goes to show how fractured the Republican party is. I listen to Newt all the time on various news/commentary outlets and tend to agree with him far more than any current candidate.
