Marcus is following up on the Campaign Compatibility test. I think he is on to something when he notes that the test is much better at distinguishing libertarians and conservatives than picking out the socio-con element that separates conservative Republicans from "centrist" Democrats. This clearly represents a place where the test creators bias shape things. But it also provides those who for whatever reason are unsure of Bush to readily locate alternatives. Has the test creator some special design in this?In any event, I found the test interesting, but having corresponded from time to time with Marcus as well as regularly reading his blog, I'll vouch that anything that gives him high compatibility with John Kerry, never mind something less than total disgust at Sharpton, has bugs to be worked out. Do not send him missives addressed to the "Kerry-loving, so-called conservative" or the like, please!
What is interesting, I think, is that we both scored 100% for Bush. It's funny: Clinton spent eight years trying to be all things to all people but Bush has just stumbled into being the last, best (well, okay, only) hope for conservatives and libertarians alike.
