doesn't it seem strange...

that the GOP now seems to be to the right of jmfcst?

Not really.  You're about a +4 on those matrix/compass quiz scores, as I recall.  Not all that far to my right, really.  I think the center of the GOP swings around a bit, to for it to be to your right is not unusual.

I will say that I think the center of the Democrat party has bigger swings in this regard, at least over the past few decades it has had greater movement of its center than the GOP.
