The candidate match game

A diverting little toy from the USA Today. It’s reductive of course, since the only issues that seem to matter are the Iraq War (what about Afghanistan?), immigration, health care, gay marriage, tax reform, global warming and “experience.” Nor do the answers allow much room for horse trading: What if I believe that border enforcement must be combined with a guest worker program? Choose one.

Still, I was surprised to see that Rudy Giuliani came out as my top pick, with John McCain second and Bill Richardson third. Once I toyed with the scales on the right – the Iraq War is more important to me than Global Warming, just now – McCain ended up in first, Guiliani second and Duncan Hunter in third.
