Your Ideal Candidate
My Mom and Aunt sent me this link to Electoral Compass USA. After a few short questions, it tells you which presidential candidate is closest to you based on the issues.
Electoral Compass USAI was in the social liberalism-progressive corner on the economic left. My ideal candidate based on my beliefs is John Edwards. No surprise for me. Had I not found out today that he will be dropping out of the race, he would have had my vote.
Go play and tell me how you make out.
Of course, it's Obama. But Hillary has been saying more and more of the
things I want to hear, lately. I'm still concerned about her campaign
contributors. Sorry about John! If Barack gets in he could make him his
running mate.
Blogged it myself--same basic area, equally well-suited for Obama or
Edwards.
Did a similar post a couple of weeks ago. Back then it came out that I was
closest to Kucinich. Now I line up with Obama
That's an interesting, but a bit simplistic approach. No surprises there
for me. Obama is the closest to my "circle". Hillary next.
Edwards was the closest, now it's Obama.
Just slightly more scientific than the Magic 8 Ball approach. I found it
interesting that while I was leaning toward Edwards that our thoughts on
issues were similar.
Obama. Y'all know how I feel. I'm still depressed about Edwards leaving,
although I hope and trust in his choice, believing that he must have left
out of a belief that staying would somehow harm the chances of the
candidate he'll ultimately support (Obama?). I'm just worried about winning
next November.
it points me right to Obama, guess that's a good thing seeing as that's the
way I was leaning. :-)
