Re: Where do you REALLY stand? Political Quiz here, post your results
Gary Johnson... Romney and Obama almost equal.
[quote]The next election (2016) will be the best shot at a third party ever winning anything.[/quote]
Maybe. If a big name with a ton of money goes third party, perhaps. But the most likely outcome is, Obama will win in 2012, and the Republicans will EVISCERATE the Democrats in 2016. The democrats have no one. The next four years will go rather badly no matter who's elected, and since it'll be Obama, the Republicans will be able to boast about 8 awful years just like the Democrats did in 08. And the Republicans have some really talented guys, like Rubio, Jindal, Ryan, who will be able to build a level of excitement like that of Obama in 08.
If the Republican party were as bleak as the Democratic, I could see it.

Umm... the Republicans don't have anyone sane enough to get half the country to vote for him, except maybe Huntsman (Christie doesn't qualify because he's fat; sorry, voters won't vote in a fat man). And no Tea Bagger would vote for him (he's a RINO in their eyes) so there goes a huge chunk of their base.
As for the Dems not having anyone?

It's funny how they ask you if you believe in the theory of evolution. I must be one of the only high rated Dems that said no.
Edit: I'm also pro-life and against most illegal immigrant benefits. I think that is my republican part.

Re: Where do you REALLY stand? Political Quiz here, post your results
Jill Stein believes that requiring welfare workers to seek work is a form of forced slave labor and that American banks should have be nationalized. Even though I matched her more than all the others with 80%, I don't think I will vote for her even though I live in a state that is not in play, and can vote my conscience without feeling like a bad guy after I voted for Nader over Kerry while living in Florida.

Re: Where do you REALLY stand? Political Quiz here, post your results
Serious question, how come no one is getting 100% Romney? I thought he stands on either side of each issue, like in abortion, he's pro life and pro choice at the same time

[QUOTE=Is He Ill]I'm want to vote for Johnson, but I don't know if it is worth it since he has a 0% chance of winning. A vote for Obama might be pointless as well since everybody already knows which candidate is winning Texas. Seriously, the electoral college is horsesh*t.[/QUOTE]
The way the states break down this time really benefits Obama, might be close in the popular vote, but Obama will win in a blow out electoral vote wise.

LOL. Apparently "principles of our country" means being assholes, because that is what I was. I grew up in a racist neighborhood that hated gay people. I wasn't as hardcore as most from my town, but enough that kept me Republican. It was the culture of acceptance at college that led me down more of a Democratic stance, not the classes themselves or anything.

Re: Where do you REALLY stand? Political Quiz here, post your results
I'm not surprised by my result. Just looked up Jill Stein and she's with the Green Party. I almost voted Nader in 2004 but didn't vote for anybody.
Anyway, I don't think I even deserve to vote because I don't have a thorough knowledge on politics. I'm way too busy trying to get my life on track.

[quote]Serious question, how come no one is getting 100% Romney? I thought he stands on either side of each issue, like in abortion, he's pro life and pro choice at the same time[/quote]
Not really. He's pro-choice when he is governor of a very liberal state that he has to work with to try to improve. And he's pro-life when he's the Republican nominee for president because of their huge pro-life voting bloc. A "President Romney" would be moderately pro-life, because he isn't that concerned about the issue, but knows what will happen in his reelection bid if he were to endorse any pro-choice legislation.
It's not too hard to figure these people out. Yes they're deceptive and flip-floppy a lot of the time, but for the most part these guys have positions, -- in so far as they have to. It's between the major issues where he could go either way.

Romney has no core beliefs. He only wants to achieve the maximum amount of fortune and power possible. If he thought he could pull it off and it would help him he would be pro choice and pro gay marriage.
Romney goes along with the crowd, he tries to get a feel for the room and then tries to please as many people as possible in that room. This why I dont think it would be tragic if he were president, since I think he would try to please as many people as possible and move towards the center. Its why he caught Obama off guard in the first debate by being more moderate. He is moving towards the center of the American political spectrum, from where he was previously (the center of the republican political spectrum).
