The Politics Test<\/b><\/a> on Ok Cupid<\/b><\/a>
\n<\/center><\/p>\n

<\/br>
\nI’ve noticed in recent years\/months that my political leanings were tilting a little more to the left, at least in terms of care for the poor and voiceless in society, but I still considered myself conservative and more or less a Republican. The results of this little quiz were quite a surprise to me.<\/br><\/br>
\nOf course, it is an online political quiz run by a dating site<\/em>, how accurate can it be? Not very, I suspect. I think that means I can dismiss it outright. Go take it<\/a> and see for your self. <\/br><\/br>
\nI think more disturbing than being called a liberal and a democrat was seeing my target smack dab in line with Adam Sandler.<\/br><\/br>
