December 19, 2011
— JohnE. ABC released an interactive candidate match game of their own. Again, eleven questions on the following subjects:
• Two on the economy (jobs, taxes)
• Three on security (Afghanistan, Pakistan, U.S. border security)
• One on health (Obamacare)
• One on energy
• Four on 'hot topics' (AGW, gay marriage, abortion, education)
It seems a little easier to discern which candidate lines up with which answer in this survey, so you'll have to try not to wishcast your results.
Fear not, your results are non-binding. Take the test here.

Perry, Luap, Bachmann. No attempt to game the game.
Last one came up Perry, Santorum, Romney.
I see a trend here.

I have a theory- Mitt Romney is from a black hole.
Think about this- the laws of physics break down completely there. Schroedingers cat is both alive and dead visibly and in the same space.
It completely explains how he can effortlessly change positions often within the same sentence.

It's insanely easy to game it though if you're already familiar with the views of the candidates.

I can live with Michy but the other 2? No way in hell.

Well at least he doesn't have Perry's problem: the Perry exclusion principle. Perry and the presidency cannot occupy the same space.

Because banal press releases on Mitt Romney's website aren't newsworthy?

I got the same results from the last quiz but with Perry (my #1) being first.

This was a decent set of questions, and an acceptable set of answers.
I note the spam does not outnumber the comments, now.

I'm on FB and signed up for his campaign stuff. Maybe it's just certain states b/c I see nothing about that. I did get hit up for making a donation targeted to being from Utah.

While mildly depressing (the Paul bit), not nearly as chipping-my-front-teeth-on-the-shotgun-barrel-in-my-mouth sensation inducing as the Reason.com test, which showed my top pick was Huntsman.

Yeah, I was just saying to the wife: "no, you go on ahead to Hawaii and start your vacation early, I have work to do. What's another $100,000 on top of a $4 million vacation, for the extra plane trip? It's not like we're paying for it ourselves!"
Then I laughed, and she laughed, and we shared a good laugh together.

Not really.
If you vote for Romney, you won't know what's in the package until you elect the package.
Nancy taught me that.

I tried reading it, but fell asleep after the first 3 syllables and my heart and respiratory rate had fallen so low that my wife thought I had done passed to the great beyond. Luckily, she was able to revive me, but damned if I didn't see the light.

Oh, and I got Bachman as my primary match, which surprised the hell out of me, with Perry and Gingrich as seconds, which would be my two picks as the most likely to match me.

Bachmann? Must have actually been a Hot or Not quiz.
Although, if you've ever seen Huntsman on a crisp Fall afternoon, the wind blowing his long tresses -- *sigh*.

Mostly positive. We've been here 17 months now so a few of the cultural things are grating a bit... but we're in Utah County, which is more insular than Salt Lake.
But certainly in most respects we like it.

So in this one, for me, Huntsman replaces Perry. Help me, Obi Wan. You're my only hope.
Posted by: AnonymousDrivel at December 19, 2011 07:16 PM (eHIJJ)
As a Perry supporter, I got Bachmann, Newt then Huntsman?!. Guess should have said AGW was a fraud to eliminate him.
Probably. Then you would have gotten Paul, Perry and Bachmann, instead of Newt and Huntsman.
