(53,035 posts)I can't vote for myself. Chris Christie
I'm guessing it was the combination of beer, tacos, and excitement over the White House chef.

(53,035 posts)This time I selected lobster rolls and Air Force One and damn if I didn't get Christie again. I still selected beer. If they would have had margaritas or some other cocktail besides red bull or straight martinis, but they didn't.

(8,646 posts)I also was really excited about the WH chef, LOL. That must've did it. I did NOT vote for Bruce, or beer, so not sure why Christie. The WH chef question must be a veto question.

(12,429 posts)The explanation at the link: "You are a reliable friend who sticks to your convictions. Just like Cuomo, you're full of drive and passion for the things that you love. You know how to be a team player, but you can also be counted to step up when your needed."

(205,478 posts)Many will call Warren an underdog if she tries to face off with Hillary, but that's not why you got her. You're smart and tactical, but you also have a very compassionate side. Just like Warren, you're not afraid to go after what you want, and you will work extremely hard to accomplish your goals.

(89,252 posts)maybe for the drink i just put soda since i try to avoid alcohol ? anyone know if ryan drinks ?
for workout i put walk between meetings. i would think ryan would put something like running or other extra workouts.
maybe it was lasagna ?
a few other things i picked were Boston and White House chef. neither of which i can see paul ryan picking.
i did it again and got hillary clinton. i think the only things i changed were the first time i put the UN and 2nd time school newspaper. (none of the options actually applied to me). and i changed the food from lasagna to pizza.

(53,035 posts)answered soda and St. Thomas Aquinas and got Andrew Cuomo. I'm thinking city is the most influential factor.
Rhiannon12866
(205,478 posts)I kept remembering Mitt Romney buying all those cases of soda...
CTyankee
(63,912 posts)so the closest I came was "speech and debate" altho I never did debates.
When I went back and chose some second options I got Andrew Cuomo. Interesting.

hobbit709
(41,694 posts)First question-what do you drink-I don't drink any of those.
Second question-I didn't do any of those in school
At that point I stopped giving random answers just to get to the next question.
BainsBane
(53,035 posts)So I had to pick varsity sports.

(41,694 posts)BainsBane
(53,035 posts)and that would have been an option and you'd have gotten W.

(80,708 posts)It was probably the "power, pure and simple" answer that did it.
BainsBane
(53,035 posts)I actually think city must rank pretty highly in their calculations. And tell me how anyone could give an answer other than the Godfather with that group of films they listed?
Warren DeMontague
(80,708 posts)Although honestly, there are very few- meaning zero- cities east of the Mississippi I would choose to live. Actually there aren't really any east of, about, Stockton.
BainsBane
(53,035 posts)Ranked #1 for the best park system in America
lowest unemployment rate in the country
Plus it has the benefit of being BOTH east and west of the Mississippi.

You just have to ignore the winter weather (and really bad, corrupt police force).

My biggest fear now is that people are finding out about this place. Fuckin' Fred Armisen, man.
