Don't know the NZ Nationals really, have a slight soft spot for Australian liberals despite the fact that Abbott is clearly insane, dislike the Canadian Conservatives any more.....Cameron is actually rather good, despite a couple of things.

I'm done with the American Republicans for the foreseeable future. It was poor judgement to actually fall for the moderation argument, when in fact the US Democrats are clearly already moderate by international standards. In reality, there's no mainstream in the entire Western world with a comparable level of arrogance, idiocy and plain disinterest in simple facts. When probably 50% of Americans think you can balance the budget by cutting politicians' salaries and getting rid of "waste" while simultaneously reducing taxes and increasing military spending...something has gone terribly, terribly wrong.

lol Republicans.

Liberals wouldn't be so bad if Abbott wasn't the leader - he's a douchebag. Conservatives in the UK and Canada I don't really know much about and most people here have said they suck. So New Zealand by default, I guess.

Cameron because I'm a major anglophile. I'm pretty sure the Republicans would be a much better party for governing if they had more Cameronites. Also, I know absolutely nothing about the Nationals, but New Zealand is overrated.

I voted for NZ Nationals because John Key seems to be more acceptable. Did Tony Abbott really say "gays on boats are the worst of my nightmares"? I read something about "climate change is a crap" but this sounds, well, rightist.

Probably a tie for first between the Canadian Conservatives and American Republicans (I voted Canadian), then after a gap the Australian Liberals, then there's a big gap, UK Conservatives, and another big gap, NZ Liberals, which are horrible.
