Choose Your Candidate

Following in the footsteps of Grabbing Sand, I took the Presidential Candidate Matching Quiz on gotoquiz.com.

Not surprisingly, the Democrats rose to the top of my list, without a single one of them ranking below a single Republican candidate. I'm pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, pro-gun control, anti-Iraq war, so that makes perfect sense to me. In fact, my results lined up pretty much exactly as I would've guessed, with one exception:

I have no idea who Chris Dodd is.

Seriously. I know I'm woefully ill-informed about the candidates. Although I'm leaning towards Obama at the moment, I know I need to do my homework in the next ten months before I can make an educated decision. But in my ill-informed state, I have to confess to not knowing who the heck Chris Dodd is. Take him off the list, though, and it's fairly accurate the rest of the way down.

89% Chris Dodd
86% Barack Obama
85% John Edwards
85% Hillary Clinton
82% Joe Biden
77% Mike Gravel
75% Dennis Kucinich
72% Bill Richardson
52% Rudy Giuliani
39% John McCain
31% Tom Tancredo
30% Mitt Romney
28% Mike Huckabee
21% Ron Paul
18% Fred Thompson

It would be funny to see how different my list is from the results the rest of my family or Alecia's family would get. With a few exceptions (Alecia's brother Rob, for example), I'm predicting the rest of our family members' lists would look like this one...turned upside down. :)
