This five second "quiz" left me with more to say (as multiple choice always has)

I am certain Hillary and I feel the same about Roe v Wade, but am also pretty certain we differ on gun control and stem cell research.
Funny, little quiz. *chuckle*

I think I had an easily-articulable alternative statement that better summarized my views for every question on that quiz. I hope so, because McCain came up #1, and I'd rather be horsewhipped.

At the risk of sounding like The Typical, Uninformed American but who the hell is my top Republican candidate? I won't be voting for him but in the quest for knowlege, maybe I'll look him up. *shrug*
I didn't catch the whole Republican debate on Saturday but I don't believe ole Tom participated.

He dropped out awhile back.

Curious...

[msmichelle]

Ah, ok. Why do you despise McCain?

The abortion, marriage and immigration issues are terribly worded. None of them include all of the options so I couldn't answer them honestly.

That said, the quiz has me pegged:
82% Ron Paul
71% Mike Huckabee
70% John McCain
68% Mitt Romney
64% Fred Thompson
63% Tom Tancredo
53% Rudy Giuliani
47% Bill Richardson
47% Mike Gravel
42% Chris Dodd
42% Dennis Kucinich
38% Barack Obama
36% John Edwards
36% Hillary Clinton
28% Joe Biden

It's not so much the simpleton language, it's more that you can't put multi-faceted issues into a convenient little multiple choice quiz like that.
It's a silly, little fun distraction, pretty much.
