Which Candidate's Philosophy Do You Support?
 

I thought this was interesting, and it didn't turn out at all the way I thought it would!

Copied from an e-mail I received today:

ABC has a test at the below address to see which campaign statements, McCain's or Obama's, you agree with most. They don't tell you who made the statements, of course, but a statement made by each candidate on the same topic (economy, immigration, judiciary, etc.) will be side by side.

You just pick which statement you agree with and, after selecting all
13, you'll find out which candidate's philosophy you support.

I think someone already posted this on the board...can't remember where though.

Sorry - I searched and didn't see it. :) Maybe in a thread that I didn't read...and the search function doesn't seem to work very well for me.

It was in the "Election 2008" thread:

Thanks - didn't read it; didn't see it.

Not a problem - I just remembered taking the quiz a few days ago, so I thought it was somewhere here. No big deal.

I scored "McCain" in all but 3 areas.

I think I'd line up better with the 2006 McCain though.

Yeah, I'm just going to respond here.

I scored Obama in all the hot topics and health, but was split with McCain on health and immigration, and went totally McCain on the economy!

some of the quotes said the same things just differently

I got all Obama, except on 2 hot topics (gay marriage and global warming) and immigration

I lined up with Obama, but I'm actually surprised that Obama said that illegal aliens should learn English.

I split on economy, was all McCain on Iraq (but I figured I would be), and lined up with McCain on global warming.

But I think the thing is that it's not that Obama's plans are bad, I just went with what seemed more realistic.
