Presidential Candidate Selector

From Volokh, an interesting quiz

My results below the fold.

1. Theoretical Ideal Candidate (100%) 2. John McCain (80%) 3. Alan Keyes (72%) 4. Mike Huckabee (69%) 5. Rudolph Giuliani (65%) 6. Fred Thompson (64%) 7. Tom Tancredo (64%) 8. Stephen Colbert (campaign ended) (63%) 9. Al Gore (not announced) (62%) 10. Duncan Hunter (62%) 11. Mitt Romney (62%) 12. Sam Brownback (withdrawn, endorsed McCain) (61%) 13. Michael Bloomberg (says he will not run) (60%) 14. Joseph Biden (59%) 15. Tommy Thompson (withdrawn, endorsed Giuliani) (58%) 16. Newt Gingrich (says he will not run) (58%) 17. Hillary Clinton (55%) 18. John Edwards (54%) 19. Chuck Hagel (not running) (52%) 20. Barack Obama (51%) 21. Jim Gilmore (withdrawn) (51%) 22. Wesley Clark (not running, endorsed Clinton) (51%) 23. Bill Richardson (50%) 24. Kent McManigal (campaign suspended) (45%) 25. Christopher Dodd (43%) 26. Ron Paul (40%) 27. Alan Augustson (campaign suspended) (32%) 28. Dennis Kucinich (28%) 29. Mike Gravel (26%) 30. Elaine Brown (9%)

As much as I decided not to vote for anyone named Clinton or Bush or who was from Arkansas, Texas or Massachusetts this year due to my complete fatigue with the politicians they've produced I may have to read up a bit more on Mr. Huckabee.

10. John Edwards (51%)

Spare me, I despise almost every one of them. Actually, wait, that just informs me about our electorate system...or more specifically the fecal matter we feed into it to "choose" from. Hell, I only like Colberts humor and Rudy. I'd pick Colbert cause it's a fuckin joke anyhow. ::grumble::
