Hunter, Tancredo, Brownback. But I’d vote for Thompson in a heartbeat.

I am a “hard core conservative” according to this quiz. I knew that. Also, I would vote for Duncan Hunter 78%, Tom Tancredo 75%, and Sam Brownback 75%.

I would least vote for Sharpton 8%, Kucinich 8%, and Clinton 10%.

I agree with the results completely, good quiz. :O)

Choose “2008 withdrawals and unannounced” and take the quiz again to include Thompson. Frist is included as well.

Good observations. Additionally, leadership ability and perception of same are not factored into this exercise. Even if the questions weren’t deficient, matching up position points is but partial measure and ignores the significant role of intangibles. Intelligent candidate selection demands both.

Would you tell me how you posted that? I haven’t found how to do it in the HTML Sandbox.

In Firefox, you drag over text, photos, etc. on a web page and highlight what you want to capture, and then right-click and choose “View Selection Source” - then right-click the code that’s highlighted and choose “Copy”; then just paste it all (text and code) into FR. Hit “Post” and you’re done.

In some cases, the (candidates) photos won’t show up, as was the case here.

What browser do you use? If you use IE I can probably tell you how to do it in that as well.

VoteMatch is an interesting tool, but its methodology is suspect at best.

I'll go further - the methodology is garbage (take a look some of the other position categories and the votes used to derive the position - it is a joke). And some of the very definitions of what 'libertarian' means are preposterous. Whoever wrote the quiz has been drinking the left-wing ACLU liberaltarian "positive rights" koolaid.

I would like to see a longer quiz asking if we support or oppose each of the individual votes used to derive these scores (many of which have nothing to do with the stated category they are under, or are outright misleading).

(That said, I came up with Hunter and Tancredo at the top, and Kucinich and Sharpton at the bottom)

Excellent point. There's much more to the President than his position on legislation. In fact, one might say that how a President would vote on this-or-that isn't all that important, since he's not going to be voting!

40% for Hunter or Tancredo.. ironically because of economic agreement. No candidate agrees with me on even half of the issues but I guess that’s what I get for being a “Conservative-Leaning Libertarian.”

Here's where I wound up:

 

Based on the above score, you are a Hard-Core Conservative . (also: Tancredo, Hunter, Brownback, in that order)

Must say, I'm kinda proud. ;-)
