Like the other Candidate calculator posted here by GP, I found this one very interesting. Find Your Candidate for the 2008 Election – VAJoe.com – Where the Military Matters Most
The only serious flaw in this calculator is that the ~21% of disagreement to my top match is over a deal-breaker issue. In my case, it would be my overwhelming disagreement with Ron Paul over the issue of abortion, and even that 21% would likely prevent me from casting a vote for him.
I have always considered myself a moderate, typically because each I dance on both sides of the political spectrum, depending on the issue. I say it's because I'm critical in my personal beliefs, while my father insists I'm just "wishy washy"
. I've never fit well into any political mold, even though this calculator indicates that I should. It at least gives me something to consider this time around, seeing how I'm perpetually undecided.
This was mine:

I would also like to point out that I think it's funny Obama is my worst match since we both attended the same High School College Prep Academy.
