1. I see no close matches.
John Edwards was the candidate with by far the best domestic policy in ages. I miss him.

2. John was the real deal.
Your choices are two corporate centerists (but at least Democrats), an egomanic, and a thug.

3. You forgot Lee Mercer.
As long as we're going to have freaky long-shot candidates who will get less than 1 percent of the vote in this poll, I think all of them should be represented in the interests of democracy. :P

10. I'm not trying to make anyone look "good" or "bad"
I'm genuinely interested in perceptions on this.

17. Maybe I should reemphasize the "most closely resembles" part?

"None of the above" is not an option. McCain added to be fair. ;)

16. Since all politicians are really, at their core, shallow, self serving, hypocritical, lying,
bloodsuckers, I would have to say all of the above. Change you can believe in my ass.

23. If you're lucky, none of the above. Edwards couldn't win an election now if his life depended on it.
Harsh, but true. There's no way he'd win his Senate seat back in NC now either.
