Election quandry
Votehelp.org “analyzed” my political viewpoints and presented an interesting stat.
Barack Obama agrees with me 87% of the time.
John McCain agrees with me 81% of the time.
I’m sure those statements could be twisted in all sorts of ways - but makes me realize even more so how both of these candidates have gotten to where they are by “pandering” or appealing to the broadest number of people.
I don’t know that we could have someone who’s on the extreme left or right win their party’s nomination these days - unless its an outside party like the Green Party, Constitutional Party or some mix in between.
Typically in recent months/years the political survey’s I’ve taken have put me pretty close to dead center or more towards a Libertarian view of politics. So - does that mean these candidates would score the same 
or are we different/similar on enough different/similar issues that I got these comparison stats?
Guess I’ll have to wait and see what Ron Paul’s announcement is later today.
