Match Game '08

Here's a little toy for all of you who feel like you haven't quite zeroed in on a presidential candidate who fits your needs.

Two Web sites ask a few questions and find you the candidate that supposedly most closely matches your answers. I'm not vouching for the accuracy of the matches, I'm just giving you something to play with.

One of them asks you for ZIP code. I have no idea why, but if it makes you paranoid put any old ZIP in there.

The second link asks more detailed questions than the first. They are pretty specific questions that might force a brain hemorrhage on the average, not-paying-attention person, but you sophisticated readers of vt.Buzz should have no problem.

Here are the links:
From WQAD TV in Illinois: LINK.
And from Minnesota Public Radio (where of course everyone is above average): LINK.

Comments:
Hillary on both
 
Thanks for feeding my addiction, Terri.

You'd problably bring a keg to an AA meeting.
 
I came up with Brian Pearl. Does that get me free admission to the state hospital in Waterbury?
 
You can judge how seriously a candidate considers his/her chances by their answer to the death penalty question.
 
Mine came up Maxine Waters. Cool!
 
For diversity's sake: McCain and Thompson (and Hunter) tied for 1st. Dodd and Gravel finished last (with Clinton just ahead of them).
 
Only the children are above average.
 
Hilary is not the one
 
Hillary is the one.
 
God help us all if Hillary is the one!
 
Hillary is the one.
 
Move now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Obama all the way.
