So I'm liberal, so what?

So, after hearing on the radio this morning about Select Smart, I decided to try it out, just to make sure that I'd chosen correctly who I will vote for. Turns out, I'm kinda liberal! Who would have thought it... Here are my results.

1. Your ideal theoretical candidate. (100%)
2. Cobb, David - Green Party (82%)
3. Nader, Ralph - Independent (77%)
4. Kerry, Senator John, MA - Democrat (66%)
5. Brown, Walt - Socialist Party (65%)
6. Badnarik, Michael - Libertarian (43%)
7. Peroutka, Michael - Constitution Party (15%)
8. Bush, President George W. - Republican (11%)

Essentially, I'm happy with my choice of Kerry. He may not be tops on my list, but he is up there. I voted green last time, and was happy with my decision because I felt that both candidates were pretty much on the same page. Of course, 9/11 changed everything, and Gore might have handled that differently - or it might not have even happened. Anyway, I feel like this is a more important election in terms of getting the most likely guy into office, and less important for making a statement about party homogenization. I most certainly will not vote for Nader just because he's being such an ass about his whole candidacy. Greens didn't want him, so he weazeled his way into another slot. Anyway - I'll be voting for Kerry. I encourage all of you to check that site out and see what you think!
