“presidential candidate selector poll”

SelectSmart has a “presidential candidate selector poll.” Given that my answer was not listed for 2/3 of the questions, I think that the results are fairly accurate:
1. Your ideal theoretical candidate. (100%)
2. Libertarian Candidate (71%) 3. Bush, President George W. - Republican (69%)
4. Gephardt, Rep. Dick, MO - Democrat (43%)
5. Lieberman, Senator Joe, CT - Democrat (42%)
6. Edwards, Senator John, NC - Democrat (37%)
7. Kerry, Senator John, MA - Democrat (33%)
8. Dean, Gov. Howard, VT - Democrat (31%)
9. Sharpton, Reverend Al - Democrat (25%)
10. Phillips, Howard - Constitution (23%)
Though you will never see a campaign banner on my site, I will almost certainly be (once again) voting for Bush. Not because I like him or his policies, but because I alternatively shudder, laugh, and cringe at the alternatives.
