Where Is My Candidate? (Reblog)

The Political Compass website has a little test that plots your political leanings on a simple graph. The Times Online has posted a graph of our Presidential candidates. I'm a -8.50, -5.54, which puts me south-west of all the candidates by a considerable margin.

I'd guess that this blog's slim readership averages out at maybe a -1, -1? Although I know we'd get some eastward economic skewing :-)

You are just a capitalist tool of The Man, Q (from my calculated perspective)

Economic Left/Right: -4.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.74

Yup, clearly Q is a econofascist whore, while NDJ is an crazy anarchist. Why can't you all see the happy truth of -8.50, -5.54?

I wanna see MGC's economic axis, so I know how big a delta I'm willing to overlook in a friend :-)

I'm apparently coincident with the Dalai Lama. Free Tibet, bitches!

And what is NDM's score?
What are you willing to overlook in a spouse?

Finally a baseline from the right. Walt reports a score of 4.63 (Econ) and 1.85 (Social).
