Take the Pew Research Center quiz and see where you are politically.

Not that I need a quiz to tell me, but I still love these questionnaires.

17. Here's an explanation for what they did.

These are the principal findings of the political typology study by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press, which sorts Americans into cohesive groups based on values, political beliefs, and party affiliation. The new study is based on two surveys with a combined sample of 3,029 adults, conducted Feb. 22-Mar. 14, 2011 and a smaller callback survey conducted April 7-10, 2011 with 1,432 of the same respondents.

This is the fifth typology created by the Pew Research Center since 1987. Many of the groups identified in the current analysis are similar to those in past typologies, reflecting the continuing importance of a number of key beliefs and values. But there are a number of critical differences as well.

The new groupings underscore the substantial political changes that have occurred since the spring of 2005, when the previous typology was released.

[digonswine]

9. Solidly lib-but-

many of those opinion statements were simplistic and trite-I felt a bit dirty clicking a few of them. Black and white thinking.

[jillan]

12. Yeah - that was kinda weird that there were 2 questions about race.

[LongTomH]

10. Another solid liberal!

:toast:

[Zax2me]

11. Gave me a solid liberal rating - but 14%?

What is 14% - of those polled?

[Snoutport]

13. hmmmm...liberal. I thought i was more centrist than that!

[Old Codger]

18. Me too

But the questions were either/or, I would think to get a real reading you would need at least 3 or 4 possible choices, cannot be done with only 2 choices.

[Hardrada]

14. Post-Modern

[Citizen Worker]

15. I take great pride in quoting a friend, "I'm worse than any liberal you've ever seen."

[Mojorabbit]

16. Solid LIberal also but the questions were

pretty simplistic and kind of cliched memes one hears in the media. I dispute the 14 percent number and I think the test is pretty worthless.

But there sure are a lot of stupid, greedy, selfish, ignorant, and mean people out there.

[Hugabear]

30. Solid Liberal - didn't really need a poll to tell me that

To be honest, with that poll, I don't see how anybody with a functioning brain could be anything other than a "solid liberal".
