According to the quiz, I matched up the most with Amy Klobuchar and Joe Biden.

Is "none of the above" an option?
ETA:
Gabbard is not on the list, but Steyer and Bloomberg are? What bullscat is this?
-
Those questions seem to assume I'm a democrat, or have democrat tendencies. While forcing me to answer some questions whose possible answers I completely disagree with, they tell me I'm a 90% match with Bloomberg, possibly my most hated of all the candidates they allowed. Which, yeah, where is Tulsi?
Based on the order of the candidates as they listed them for me, they're basically just asking if I'm establishment dem or commie pinko dem. Bloomberg and Biden at the top, Sanders and Warren at the bottom for my list.

This is the best Cosmo quiz yet!

Of course. Conservatives don't read. We just watch Fox News and drool on ourselves.

It told me I most agree with Bloomberg ( [barf] ) followed by Biden, with Klobuchar, Yang, and Steyer tied for third.
Since I regard Bloomberg with about the same respect I have for the south end of a northbound horse, this doesn't say much for the Democratic Party.

Did anyone else like the little animated hanging chad? =D

eta: Every answer was a hanging chad....the whole thing is invalid and must be adjudicated to the highest court in the land!

Good grief!
That quiz says Bloomberg aligns with me best (8/10), Biden second-best (7/10), and Klobuchar third (6/10). Considering that there's no way I would ever vote for Bloomberg or Biden, I am left to conclude that the quiz was constructed as a push poll.
Either that, or it's further proof that everyone else on that side is so far to the left that mere Socialists appear to be mainstream ...

There are times when I LOVE having the NY Times say "uh, no, you can't do this without paying us first!"
Makes it SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO easy to say... WGAF...

Used to be that when you paid for the NYTs at least you got bird cage liner and toilet paper as part of the deal. Now you just get the S***

Just think of this as the way elections will be held if Democrats ever get full control of the FedGov.

FTFY.
It's just a matter of time.

:lol: Wait, that's not funny. =|
I've decided my ideal Democratic candidate is George Wallace. The reasons are these:
1. He's dead, so he can't do any more damage.
2. He's known mostly for being a racist, which makes him a pretty good representative of the Democratic Party.
3. He's dead, so he can't do any more damage.
4. He's known mostly for being a racist, which makes him unelectable.
5. He's dead, so he can't do any more damage.
6. He's known mostly for being a racist, but that's better than what the Democrats have turned into, and actually a whole lot more reasonable.
7. He's dead, so he can't do any more damage.
(Yeah, I know he changed in his later years.)

Either the NYT jumped the gun, or Hill's getting lazy and just rubbed her out of the election.
