Disturbing Political Result

Another blogger led me to an online survey meant to determine my political standing. I was very surprised by the results, and frankly question them. Regardless, here they are:


CandidateTotal Score
Democratic Party61.39 %
Republican Party46.52 %

CandidateTotal Score
Joe Biden70.25 %
Chris Dodd66.46 %
Sam Brownback65.82 %
Dennis Kucinich63.92 %
Hillary Clinton60.44 %
Barack Obama59.81 %
John Edwards59.18 %
Bill Richardson57.91 %
John McCain56.01 %
Mike Huckabee54.11 %
Mitt Romney51.58 %
Ron Paul48.73 %
Duncan Hunter46.52 %
Rudy Guiliani45.89 %
Tom Tancredo43.35 %
Fred Thompson41.14 %

Some of this comes from my position on environmental issues, my openness to a limited form of universal health care, my aversion to the Republican party's aggressive stance against illegal immigration, and the fact that I lean left-of-center on tax issues. I am aggressively anti-abortion. Still, why Joe Biden? That's insulting, and I'm WAY too close to Hillary. But, as you can tell by the percentages, I don't really fit any of the candidates. Perhaps I should run.

  1. I'd vote for you Josh! Oh wait, I'd have to know why you're so similar to Hilary first!

  2. Josh,
    Why are you surprised? Other than your anti-abortion stance you sound like a Dem. That isn't necessarily a bad thing...I guess!

  3. Wait a minute! If you ran, then who would take over our church?!

  4. Run where? Like Jonah, and run away? Oh, wait. That's this week's sermon. Don't want to get ahead of ourselves.

    Where shall I run, Lord, when all around me trouble and strife seem to be everywhere?

    Besides, just how many political offices can one man hold?
