Dean was DEAD LAST in my rankings!!!!!
Behind Lieberman, even!
Clark was the highest candidate on the list that I would consider voting for, and he was 5th!!!!
Boxer, Durbin, Feingold, and Wellstone were my top 4 for senate.
My top matches for house were people I have never heard of.
Colin Powell was my best match for Bush's cabinet, and Mel Martinez was last, but Asscroft was third-from-last, so I figure I'm on the right track there.
Nader was my top political celebrity.
Wow, this is depressing....
Total 70% Ralph Nader Total 60% Barack Obama Total 60% Hillary Clinton Total 53% Bill Clinton Total 50% Arianna Huffington Total 48% Jesse Ventura Total 43% Colin Powell Total 40% Bill Bradley Total 38% Howard Dean Total 28% Al Gore Total 28% John McCain Total 20% Dan Quayle Total 18% Rush Limbaugh Total 18% George Bush Sr. Total 15% George W. Bush Total 15% Ronald Reagan Total 13% Pat Buchanan Total 10% John Ashcroft
Considering that some of my political heroes are well below some people I can't freakin' stand...

My take...I don't know much about Wellstone and Sarbanes but I like the rest of my matches.
My House matches...
1. Danny Davis (who?) 2. Major Owens (who?) 3. Bobby Rush (who?) 4. Jesse Louis Jackson 5. Barbara Lee (who?) 6. James Oberstar (who?) 7. John Conyers 8. Bob Filmer (who?) 9. Elijah Cummings 10. John Lewis (GA)
My take...I don't follow the House much but I like that I matched so many civil rights leaders.

Barbara Lee was the one rep to vote against the Afghan war.
She's a hero to many people here in CA... you're in good company.

17. My own home state Senator was #1 Dick Durbin! |
|
Woohoo! If Obama were already in the Senate I'm sure he would be #2. Illinois kicks so much ass.
Next were Feingold, Boxer and Dayton.

Most closely matched w/ Joseph Lieberman. Mark Dayton Debbie Stabenow John Corzine Hillary Clinton John Edwards Bill Nelson Charles Schumer Russel Feingold Barbara Boxer
My current home state senators are all named in the worst 10!
Now here's the funny part. I am a decendant of Oliver Ellsworth, 3rd Supreme Court Justice of the United States, Suggested name "United States" of America, Suggested the model for the House of Representatives, One of the five original drafters of the Constitution. I tested myself against the current Supreme Court Justices, and NONE of them are anywhere close to my beleifs. Ginsberg was the closest at 8% agreement!
