I don't want to vote for Obama (for the wrong reasons)

Oct 26th 2008 at 8:56 PM

I'm voting.

I know that I have an emotional response to our current president, and I don't want to vote against the Republican party just because I've been disappointed in Bush. There are some issues on which I strongly agree with the Republican party. But just some.

I don't want to vote for Obama just because I need change. That'd be an emotional response.

I fired up glass booth. I don't put much stock in online quizes. And I won't base my decision on what glass booth tells me.

Their quiz is refreshingly simple. Narrow the issues down to the ones I care about the most, and then see which candidates agree with me the most on those few high-priority issues.

I still have more research to do. But I'll take a little comfort in the fact that this quiz (among others) jibes with my inclination.

"... jibes with my inclination." To my surprise, my quiz results also jibed with my inclination, even a few percentage points more that did yours:

I had already mailed in my absentee ballot before taking this quiz. Like you, (Trippy and) I shall take some comfort in knowing that I (we) voted based on principles and beliefs, as opposed to responding with a reactionary "vote for change."
