I didn't see "pinko, liberal, metrosexual anarchist", so I didn't vote.

U should have put "Other (please explain in a post)" as a choice.

I'm Neoclassical Conservative.

Only allowed 12 options Im afraid...there could have quite easily been 20-25 valid options.

I would describe myself as a Nationalist, but didn't think it had enough substance for the poll.

Nationalist is too vague. Especially because way too many consider themselves nationalists.

What about "leaning towards democrat, but will vote for whomever seems best (or least worst) in an election"

I know, it seems wishy-washy, but it really isn't, I'm against following a party blindly, it just involves too much trust in people

For '08, I'm leaning toward Obama. If he doesn't make it to the election, then hopefully McCain does....otherwise, I don't know what I will do.

I suppose Norse means what ideology do you subscribe to, not what candidate traits do you look for, so if you're a social democrat, but vote for McCain because you like him, your ideology is still social-democratic (and by extension totalitarian, but that's a different matter).

Classical Conservative. I have found that many of my ideals come from that of 50s America, and that I have alot of similar views with people such as Teddy Roosevelt, Thomas Jefferson, etc...

Nappy rash, every time you try and patronise someone, a fairy dies. Do you understand?


I don't have any allegiance. Mostly I assume whatever winds up the fuckheads i am talking to most. I hate sitting around and agreeing with people, and in the bourgeois enclaves of hackney that happens all too often. Too much received wisdom. Why, the other day I was arguing that thatcher had done great things for the UK. No one really understood why they disagreed. It was just ' but we hate her'. No idea why. I hate her too.

Although also possibly a Liberal Patriot.

I find myself doing this, but I don't think I could argue the point for someone who I hated though, even if it is giving some liberal member of the islington brigade a stonking great hard-on.

It could be argued that the term "national" is quite a wide-reaching term. I would consider that a few of the ideaologies listed contain levels of nationalism, by the nature of them.

However, "National liberal" was a terrible ommision on my part.
