Nothing too surprising, although my association with the vile Clinton is a bit disturbing. Oddly, I'm a better match with Giuliani (23 percent) than with Vilsack (20 percent).

John Kerry, though thankfully at only 53%, followed by Chris Dodd with 48%.

Most similar on social issues were Kerry (81%), Dodd (75%), Kucinich (75%) and Clinton (69%)

Most similar on economic issues were Richardson, Pataki, Hagel, and Frist, all at 58%.

Wow, reading more about this Hunter guy, I'm pretty impressed with him!

[Brandon H]

Wow, reading more about this Hunter guy, I'm pretty impressed with him!

If I had to vote for one of these guys, right now it would probably be Duncan Hunter. I'm still hoping for the CP to get a strong (someone with name recognition) candidate.

Gore has to be better than that on social issues. How did Vilsack do so bad?
