    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Liberal, near the "top" of that designated area, one square away from the top-left corner of Centrist and one square away from Libertarian.

    I took that one yesterday. It was forwarded to me on Facebook. Shockingly, I ended up as a Libertarian.

    Wow. Staunch conservative. I guess that's not shocking, but I thought it telling that "only" 80% of people like me were Republicans. Are there 20% of people who are staunchly conservative Libertarians or Democrats?

    Lots of Tea Partiers, too.

    I finished up as a solid liberal. That seems correct.

    Your true political self:

    You are a

    Social Liberal
    (75% permissive)

    and an...

    Economic Liberal
    (31% permissive)

    You are best described as a:

    Democrat

    You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.

    Your political compass
    Economic Left/Right: -4.88
    Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.26

    Quiz Results
    The RED DOT on the Chart shows where you fit on the political map.
    Your PERSONAL issues Score is 100%

    Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 40%

    According to your answers, the political group that agrees with you most is...

    Liberals usually embrace freedom of choice in personal matters, but tend to support significant government control of the economy. They generally support a government-funded "safety net" to help the disadvantaged, and advocate strict regulation of business. Liberals tend to favor environmental regulations, defend civil liberties and free expression, support government action to promote equality, and tolerate diverse lifestyles.

    That is what the OKCupid one was. I thought the questions on that one were pretty ridiculous though.

    At least it got me decently close to what I believe I am. Pretty close to a Liberal/Libertarian.
