    Please take this USA today quiz and click the candidate that they say best matches your positions - even if it is not the candidate you plan to vote for.

    Thanks in advance for not cheating and just clicking a choice without taking the quiz.

    I got Obama, but only on 5 of 11. I wasn't very similar to any. Bachmann was my 3rd choice with 2 of 11.

    1. Obama, 6/11
    2. Huntsman, 4/11
    3. Perry 3/11

    Looks like I got Romney and Gingrich with 2/11 each, Paul at 1/11, and 0/11 for Bachmann and Santorum.

    Obama 5/11
    Huntsman 3/11
    Romney 2/11

    Seems about right to me.

    Buddy Roemer, former Louisiana governor, former Democrat and later self-described moderate Republican.

    Guy wants to "...fight special interests... balance the budget... reform the tax code... reform the health care system..." and is for "strengthing the national defense."

    I applaud his goals, even if they take place in some impossible, never-going-to-happen fantasy land.

    What I expected with Obama, Romney and Huntsman as 1, 2, 3, in that order at 3/11 each. Tiebreaker goes to issue scores.

    Buddy seems to have borrowed the platforms of every movie president in Hollywood history.

    Romney
    Huntsman
    Gingrich

    But no one reached 60%. Sounds about right.

    Obama, with Romney and Huntsman one behind, but I wasn't like anyone really.

    Actually, if you input 'none of the above' for every question - the likely truth if you're not an ideologue - it returns no candidate at all.
