My results were all over the place, I think it's because of the wording of different quizzes.

Should You Be Allowed to Vote?
You Should Be Allowed to Vote
You got 14/15 questions correct.
Generally speaking, you're very well informed.
If you vote this election, you'll know exactly who (and what) you'll be voting for.
You're likely to have strong opinions, and you have the facts to back them up.

Should You Vote for Obama or McCain?
Your Issue Profile: 76% Obama, 24% McCain
While it sounds like Obama is the choice for you, he's not a perfect match.
You and John McCain actually share some of the same views.

Who Should You Vote For?
You Should Vote for Barack Obama
Whether this is news to your or not, you have some studying to do.
Obama seems like he's the right fit, but it's an important issue might sway you over to McCain.


Are You a Liberal Lady or a Conservative Chick?
You Are a Liberal Lady
Like Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore, you don't shy away from your liberal causes.
You may consider yourself a feminist, and you definitely trust your heart to tell you what's right.
You are likely to have a million issues you care about - and not nearly enough time to devote to them all.

Are You a Feminist?
You Are 96% Feminist
You are a total feminist. This doesn't mean you're a man hater (in fact, you may be a man).
You just think that men and women should be treated equally. It's a simple idea but somehow complicated for the world to put into action.

Are You Homophobic?
You Are 0% Homophobic
You're open minded, tolerant, and accepting.
And you're not homophobic in the least :-)

Should You Vote Republican or Democrat?
Your Vote Score: 37% Republican, 63% Democrat
While you don't always agree with the Democrat party, it's a pretty good match for you.
Do be sure to research each candidate. A liberal Republican or independent candidate might fit you better at times.

Are You a Political Radical?
You Are 28% Politically Radical
You've got a few unusual political ideas, but overall you're a pretty mainstream person. Chances are that you're turned off by both the radical right and looney left.

How Republican Are You?
You Are 4% Republican
If you have anything in common with the Republican party, it's by sheer chance.
You're a staunch liberal, and nothing is going to change that!

How Democrat Are You?
You Are 48% Democrat
You aren't a full fledged Democrat yet, but it's likely the party that fits you best.
You probably consider yourself an independent Democrat. You usually support the party, but you also think for yourself!

Are You a Socialist or Capitalist?
You Are 28% Capitalist, 72% Socialist
You tend to be quite wary of businesses, especially big business.
While you know that corporations have their place, you tend to support small, locally owned shops.
As far as the rich go, you think they're usually corrupt and immoral.

What's Your Political Persuasion?
You Are a "Don't Tread On Me" Libertarian
You distrust the government, are fiercely independent, and don't belong in either party.
Religion and politics should never mix, in your opinion... and you feel oppressed by both.
You don't want the government to cramp your self made style. Or anyone else's for that matter.
You're proud to say that you're pro-choice on absolutely everything!

What Modern US President Are You Most Like?
You Are Most Like John F. Kennedy
You live a fairy tale life that most people envy.
And while you may have a few dark secrets, few people know them.

How Liberal Or Conservative Are You?
Your Political Profile:
Overall: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal

Social Issues: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal

Personal Responsibility: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal

Fiscal Issues: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal

Ethics: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal

Defense and Crime: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal

If you vote this election, you'll know exactly who (and what) you'll be voting for.
You're likely to have strong opinions, and you have the facts to back them up.


Your Issue Profile: 20% Obama, 80% McCain
The results are in, and John McCain is definitely your choice.
You're probably not surprised. It's possible you've had your eye on McCain for years.

Popular or not, you will likely stick by McCain. For you, it's a matter of principle.
And besides, there's something exciting about rooting for the underdog!


You Should Vote for John McCain
Where you and John McCain agree: Cuba - Education - Health Care - Immigration - The War in Iraq - Taxes

Where you and John McCain disagree: Abortion - Global Warming


You Are a Moderate Mama
You're not overly political, and your views fall more with the American mainstream.
In fact, it may be difficult for you to decide who to vote for at times!
Your approach to politics is reasoned and well though out.


You Are 59% Feminist
You aren't a total traditionalist when it comes to gender roles. But you're no feminist either.
You generally think that women should be treated as equals, but you're not convinced the world should be gender neutral.


You Are 5% Homophobic
You're open minded, tolerant, and accepting.
And you're not homophobic in the least :-)


Your Vote Score: 69% Republican, 31% Democrat
While you don't always agree with the Republican party, it's a pretty good match for you.
Do be sure to research each candidate. A conservative Democrat or independent candidate might fit you better at times.


You Are 20% Politically Radical
You're a very traditional person and perhaps a little resistant to change. In a few more years, your beliefs will be so old fashioned that they'll be radical!


You Are 36% Republican
You're a bit Republican and probably more conservative than you realize.
If you're still voting Democrat, maybe it's time that you stop.


You Are 20% Democrat
If you have anything in common with the Democrat party, it's by sheer chance.
You're a staunch conservative, and nothing is going to change that!


You Are 52% Capitalist, 48% Socialist
While you are definitely sympathetic to a free economy, you also worry about the less fortunate.
Wealth and business is fine, as long as those who are in need get helped out too.
You tend to see both the government and corporations as potentially corrupt.


You Are a Liberal Republican
When you tell people that you're Republican, they rarely believe you.
That's because you're socially liberal - and likely pro-choice and pro-gay rights.
You're also not so afraid of big government, as long as it benefits people and not politicians.
You are the most likely of any Republican type to swing over to the Democrat side sometimes.


You Are Most Like George H. W. Bush
You're considered boring by people that don't know you well. But like Bush senior, you do crazy things.
Maybe you'll end up banning broccoli in your house, or puking on the Prime Minster of Japan!


Your Political Profile:
Overall: 75% Conservative, 25% Liberal

Social Issues: 75% Conservative, 25% Liberal

Personal Responsibility: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal

Fiscal Issues: 100% Conservative, 0% Liberal

Ethics: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal

Defense and Crime: 100% Conservative, 0% Liberal

Your Issue Profile: 92% Obama, 8% McCain

When it comes to the issues, you agree with Obama on almost everything.
