2008 Presidential Candidate Matching Quiz

Seriously, I would vote for Gumby, Mickey Mouse, or Christopher Dodd before I would vote for Hilary. It could get dicey though... Huckabee scares me a little, so a Clinton-Huckabee race doesn't make me very comfortable. I don't think that is a likely scenario, however, since she tanked.

I feel like a Democrat, though, in that I don't love any of "my" candidates, I hate the opposition more. I think it's a shame that pretty much every one of our candidates has some major flaw. I can't vote for Huckabee because of the creepy Nehemiah Scudder-style religious overtones, Romney did such a great job in MA (not!), etc... I think at this point I favor Ron Paul, but that's just because I haven't read enough about his yet. The reality is that he's probably unelectable because he's not mainstream-Republican enough.

Ah well. Off to work.

I am always surprised you identify with the Rep party. I know you commented you feel more like a democrat right now. Sticking my neck out here I would guess that fiscal and personal responsibility would appeal to your sensibilities, but all the Rep candidates I have seen tend to say the words and then behave differently.
I personally list dem but tend to fall more to the libertarian side of things. I think it is because the Gov trying to tell me how to live (when I don't bother any one else or their rights) burns my buns more than anything else.
Ron Paul is an interesting candidate (IMNSHO)he has a great idea on how thing should be but no real plan for getting there as Kyttle said he is in Australia and he wants to get to Boston without a map and currently no boat.

At the end of the day we are really just rational anarchists, but libertarian works well enough (NH here we come baby).
we picked the reb check mark this time around in an attempt to see if we could do something fancy on the other side of the aisle.

I started reading some on Ron Paul just this weekend. He actually has a lot of common sense ideas and that is probably why he won't get far.
I wonder if I'm jaded?

maybeeee
