An easy way to see which presidential candidate is most likely to line up with the way you think HERE. I had no surprises. For me: 1 - Mike Huckabee, 2 - Mitt Romney, 3 - John McCain, 4 - Hillary Clinton, 5 - Barack Obama.

It's still early so I haven't seen any Super Tuesday results, but I have some dilemmas. If Mitt gets the republican nomination I don't think he has a chance of beating whichever Democrat runs. John McCain is much more of a centerist than a conservative or liberal so I believe he has much more of a chance at beating the Democratic nominee, though he's my least favorite Republican. On the Democrat side, on one hand I hope Hillary gets the nomination because I think she would be easier to beat than Obama. However, having her be the president if she happened to win would stick in my craw. Even though she lines up better with my views than Obama, I think Obama is more sincere and would be a better overall president than Clinton. I do think Huckabee is taking votes away from Romney and doesn't stand a snowball's chance in hades of getting the nomination, but he's my favorite candidate by far. Oh the dilemmas we face in voting.

Mine came up with Clinton and Romney being tied, Clinton being placed ahead (presumably because of alphabetical order). I thought some of the questions were poorly worded.

In reality, there's no way I would vote for Hillary, because I believe she is in it for the power. I believe she would damage our country severely. But if she's your choice, you should vote for her.

Personally, I want to vote in November for Mitt Romney / Condoleezza Rice. I will have issues if it comes down to one ticket having Clinton (either P or VP), and the other having Huckabee (P or VP). I don't like Huckabee's prejudices. I feel his campaign is based on his ex-minister experience.

I heard a funny comment on the Radio today. A caller was asked who he was going to vote for. His response:
"Gladys Knight. She's a woman, she's black, and she's a mormon."

Just one of the things that bothers me about Obama. He's running as the "Black" candidate when in reality his father was black and his mother was white. Interesting that you would go Clinton. Her main push is national health care which in the two countries I've lived in that had it, was a complete disaster for the general population. That and the rest of her position is about as liberal as you can get. I don't think you have to worry about Huckabee being the candidate, but you really would vote for a liberal Clinton over a conservative Huckabee? Look at their web sites. Compare their views.

Mine came up as follows:
1. Mitt Romney
2. Hillary Clinton
3. John McCain
4. Mike Huckabee
5. Barack Obama

Thanks for the link dad, I thought it was quite interesting. I do have to say that the questions as posed were ridiculously skewed toward a Democratic viewpoint. For example, I believe strongly that every American should have health insurance, and I believe that the president shouldn't raise taxes. However, I don't believe that the government should take over the health care system and I do believe there are instances when the president should raise taxes. The way the questions were phrased, I had to choose between what I thought they were asking and what the question really said.

All in all, the results are approximately representative of my voting order, with Clinton and McCain meing switched and Obama and Huckabee being switched. 1. Romney 2. McCain 3. Clinton 4. Obama 5. Huckabee

For me, Romney ranked first and Clinton was dead last:)

My results (I cannot believe this): 1. Huckabee, 2. Romney, 3 McCain, 4. Clinton, 5. Obama.

I did the survey, and I have to say I'm voting for the person who has moral values, integrity, experience in FIXING things, and who can do the best job. That person would be Mitt Romney.

We may not agree on every single issue, but at least I know he's honest.

I could never vote for Clinton (VP or P) or Huckabee (VP or P).

This is how it came out for me: 1. Huckabee 2. Clinton 3. Romney 4. Obama 5. McCain.

I agree that the questions were terrible. Of course I'll vote for Romney if it's an option, but if not, I'm undecided.

Hey, I'll join the party. The lineup:

1.1: Romney
1.2: McCain
1.3: Huckabee
4: Clinton
5: Obama

It looked like the first three were all tied on mine, but that's the order it gave 'em to me. I haven't had time to follow the political debates as closely as I'd like to, and I don't know where everyone stands on what major issues. I can accept it putting Romney first for me. That's fine. Yes, he's lied and has been a politician just like the rest of 'em. He's not clean. But then again, none of 'em are. At least he's not Hillary.

Interesting that Erica's results match my results.

OK, Kiera is in bed. My results:
Romney
Huckabee
McCain
Clinton
Obama
Before I took this test, that is the order I would have placed them in, except Clinton would be last.
