I thought the this test was more accurate than the one in class, my top candidate was John McCain and thats who i would vote for.
I think you're right. Congratulations Bryan on being the first to use our blog.
I agree with Bryan, this test is more accurate than the one we took in class, however my top candidate was Barack Obama, but McCain was only a few different than him, but i would vote for McCain, not Obama.
This makes me feel a lot better! According to this survey, I was 8 pts for Nader, 7 for Obama, and 6 for McCain. I would say that I am Moderate. At this point in the election I think that either Obama, or McCain would be very capable for the job. Right now though I am thinking John McCain, but that could change...
I scored 15 with McCain and 12 with Obama and that is where I was with the in class test. But I agree with everyone else that this was a more extensive test.
Wow i agree with everyone the test was a lot more indepth on the issues. I was a little suprised i got 12 for McCain and 5 for Obama which was a little different from the class version
I agree with everyone else that this test is much more efficient than the one in class, although in both tests i supported Obama. At the beginning of the election i favored John McCain but as election day gets closer i seem to favor Barack Obama more and more. If i were old enough to vote and election day was today i would vote Obama.
Yeah, so I definitely got Obama. And I definitely didn't want him. I'm not gonna lie, he's a decent person. I have nothing against him. I scored pretty close between McCain and Obama. I got 19 for Obama and 14 for McCain. Okay, maybe it's a little stretch, I suppose, but I was looking at the points that I agreed with for McCain and most of those were the more important points for me. Some of the things I had in common with Obama were a little on the not-as-important side. I don't know. I don't think anything bad would happen with Obama as president. And I don't think that he's a bad person. And I think that it would be really cool to have a person of color as a president, however, I'm still for McCain. Woo, so now that I've typed a story, I should probably get back to my other homework. =]
I think that this survey was a lot more professional and more accurate than the one we took in class but it also was a little harder to understand some of the questions and answers. I got 7 for Nader, 7 for Obama and 5 for McCain. I think im a moderate but leaning a little to the liberal side.
I agree the test was more accurate. I favored McCain more in the beginning but as the elections get closer im favoring more towards Obama. I believe im a moderate now because I agree with both parties on a lot of important subjects.
Yeah, I think this test was way more accurate than the one in class. I got 17 for McCain, 17 for Obama, and 10 and 3 for the other two canidates. I do feel that I'm really moderate because I agree with McCain on some things and Obama on others, so I think that this test told me more than the one in class.
i thought this was a pretty accurate test. my top candidate was barack obama, which is who i would vote for in this election and will hopefully vote for in 2012 for his re-election. one thing i thought was confusing about this quiz were the mortgage crisis questions, because i wasnt exactly sure of what they were talking about. i think i would probably have a better understanding if i was actually a homeowner or business person. it also wasnt suprising that i scored 23 points for obama, when everyone else got about 15 matches for theirs, because i knew that i agreed with him on a lot of issues. wow, i think this is even longer than jennas!
I have to agree with Bryan. I felt this test was much more accurate than the one we took in class. It showed that my top pick would be Obama, which is who I favor in this election.
VOTE OBAMA!
This test was definatly more in-depth than the one we took in class (I thought that one was more fun though :D ). I scored 22 points for McCain, 7 for Obama, and 3 for Nader. I would definatly say, after taking this quiz, that I'm more of a conservative but I agree with some issues from both sides. But some of the questions were confusing; that's the only part I had trouble with. I kinda already knew that I wanted McCain to win and if I could vote, I'd vote for him! :)
I also preferred this survey over the one we did in class. I scored 14 for Barack Obama and 12 for John McCain. Which is similar to the class survey but if I could vote today I would vote for McCain even though I do agree with some of the things Obama says.
I was surprised at some of the results following after my main candidate. I knew I was a pretty staunch supporter of Barack Obama, I am willing to listen to both sides, and John McCain was the last choice on my results. I believe this was a pretty accurate poll and If I were to vote today, I would most definetly vote for Barack Obama.

I scored 12 points for Mccain and 8 points for Obama, while it was close I still leaned more towards Mccain which is how i feel about the election. So not many big surprise but did lead me towards a canadiate instead of a party.
I agree the test was much more accurate then the one in class I was for McCain which is who I would vote for. I had 12 for McCcain 5 for Bob Barr and 1 for Obama and Nader. This is exactly how would have said it before the survey.
I support John McCain. He was the results of my survey and he is who I would vote for. I got 17 for McCain and 11 for Obama. This survey was better than the one in class.
I don't feel like this test helped me at all actually. I don't really agree with either candidates views 100%. I think i agree with what Obama says a little more than I do with McCain. I really don't know who i would vote for if i was able to vote.
I scored 10 with Obama and 8 with McCain. I think I'm Moderate, I agree with both McCain and Obama on different things. I still think I would vote for McCain because I like him better as a person.
Sorry this is so late-monday morining, but I remembered after all. So after this poll I had 11 votes for Obama and 10 for McCain which I think is pretty true, seeing as I am pretty undecided. I like this test, it was simple and accurate.
MCCAIN '08!!
I thought the test was acurate and it showed that i would favor Obama with 14 to McCain 6. so it was very acurate and I think it was much better that the one we did in class.

i thought this test was much more accurate than the test in class because this test went more indepth on the issues that have been occuring between these two candidates. I also believe this because my top candidate was John Mccain and thats who i voted for
I agree with everyone, this was much more in depth about the issues. It confirmed what i felt, that Obama would be best choice for me.but, i was really suprised that Ralph Nader was my second, coming in only 5pts behind obama!
This test i guess , was pretty accurate. I totally agree with the results cause i got Barack Obama , and i love Obama. I would definitely vote for Obama if i could.
Welp, it happened and I got McCain. Of course this test is more accurate than the one in class because it has more in depth questions that further predict your views and can better predict your canidates. Personally I like Obama probably because of my parents, but I'm am open to other views and I got McCain so maybe I'll do a little more research on him to see if I truly would vote for him, but I doubt it. But i did like his gun control views, lol. OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!- brady
