If you look at Obama and Feingold, they agree on every single issue in term of support vs. oppose, it’s just that there are differences in which issues they strongly support vs. support and strongly oppose vs. oppose.

Given that Russ has said that he’s out for ‘08, I guess it’s time to get on the Obama train…

Thanks for the diversion. My results had Obama and Feingold at 100%, flipped Richardson and Kucinich from your list, and put Chris Dodd fifth.

Hillary and Edwards? Ninth and 10th.

Aw Gee-Whiz, this thing’s gotta be wrong. I had Dennis Kucinich 100%. Either it’s wrong or I am! Ha!

Barack, Feingold and Richardson were right behind.

I had Obama first, then Feingold, and I think Edwards was number 7 or something.

Whoa, slow down. Since when does what a candidate stands for matter? It seems both parties will put aside issues to pick a candidate they think will win. They seem to worry about the issue part later.
