Finally paying attention
2007-10-08 20:56To 2008. I haven't found a big table comparing the candidates, but SelectSmart lets you answer questions and gives matches. My list:
Augustson 86%, Kucinich 84%, Gravel 81%, Obama 78%, Dodd 75%, Biden 74%, Clinton 72%, Bloomberg 70%, Edwards 68%, Clark/Gore 66%, Richardson 64%, jump to Paul 55%, big jump to McCain and Giuliani 33%, slides down to 15% in the dregs of the GOP.
Some of the stuff -- free/fair trade, business/labor, I'm not sure about. Richardson gets hurt by being a free trader and opposing full gay marriage, but gets endorses by the NRA which I actually like though I gave it a low priority. Bloomberg's descriptions sound pretty attractive over all, not sure why he's only 70%. Gravel supports a national sales tax, which seems weird.
