I LOVE it.

I'd say I am an armchair politician. I love politics but I have to admit I need to spend more time really researching the candidates before I make any decisions. Last weekend while with Millers I was greatly outnumbered by Republicans (as demonstrated in the cat issue - they'll all get that). One of Jake's family members (no names please) said he really likes John McCain. He then stated he does not like John Edwards and admits it may be because he ran as John Kerry's VP in the last election. Well, this week I heard (on the radio, of course) that John McCain was almost John Kerry's running mate last time. WHAT!? They called him a turn coat. OOOOOOooooohhhh. LOL. Anyhooo. I am a big John Edwards fan - I don't care how much he pays for his haircuts. I know he isn't the top dog right now but I think everyone should consider getting to know him a little better. In the debates he has presented himself very well. Yes, I am a dork and watch those things - and I am completely fascinated by them. Today I was browsing the web and I found this quiz. You answer questions and it tell you who is in line with your concerns/values. Here are my results. Do you need business performance management software?

78% Mike Gravel
77% John Edwards
77% Bill Richardson
72% Dennis Kucinich
72% Hillary Clinton
71% Barack Obama
64% Chris Dodd
62% Joe Biden
36% Mitt Romney
35% Rudy Giuliani
34% John McCain
34% Tom Tancredo
31% Ron Paul
29% Mike Huckabee
26% Fred Thompson

2008 Presidential Candidate Matching Quiz

I don't even know who that first guy is but as you can see....John Edwards is my man. I did kinda like Bill Richardson but he dropped out. I would NEVER vote for Crazy Kucinich not that it matters because he dropped out too. BTW...Jake likes Fred Thompson (he also dropped out). Can we be any more different politically? I guess we just cancel each other out.

    When your thoughts start aligning with Dennis Kucinich it is time to take inventory!

  6. I think Dennis was so high on mine because I said we should legalize marijuana and regulate it. I don't think that little quiz is foolproof...I've already thought of options that weren't on there. Isn't it funny that I said my non democrat option is Huckabee and he is super low on my list.
