It went through all the Democrats at the top, Republicans at the bottom. My top Dem was Hillary and top Rep was Guilani. Both were actually true, as shocking as it may seem. Still true for Hillary, which doesn't mean I don't like Obama. Totally do. I liked Guiliani solely because he wasn't truly a Bible-beating pro-lifer and figured if we got stuck with another Rep, may as well NOT be one of those again! Guess we're stuck with McCain now, though. (Better than Romney! Eeek.) Wow, this thing actually works. It went through all the Democrats at the top, Republicans at the bottom.

It wouldn't be a disaster if Hillary won. It'd be cool to have a first woman president, I guess. And I'd pick her over McCain. I am a recovering Republican (I did sadly vote for GW the first time around, but I learned my lesson - AND I just changed my party affiliation from Republican to Independent - baby steps... baby steps). ;-) @silvia: Billary's been going around for a while now. Not sure who exactly is using it though... @rita: Yeah, I usually do these things before voting, just to see how well I’m paying attention to the issues and the candidate’s stance on them.

Too bad I can't vote, but I'd like to see a Democrat, too. Never heard of "Billary" before! LOL Thats funny, I got that same mail!

That was fun to take. My results matched up almost exactly the same as yours, but I must say, I don't agree with who you are backing and who you are bashing, so that is pretty interesting. Anyway, as long as a Democrat wins I will be happy. I must say, there is not one Republican I could vote for, but that always is the case for me, nothing new. This is an important one, and the amount of people getting out to vote is very encouraging. Pam Thanks for the quiz, Christina. That was fun to take.
