I'm a little surprised that it didn't score me more libertarian. I'm a bit disappointed that the authors chose to break things down by foreign policy and social issues, but seemed to ignore economics. It seemed like about half the questions were economics-related.

Via Daffodil Lane, who's scores only surprised in that both are nearly as libertarian as I am, and that the chart was wide enough to keep Jamison from falling off the left side.

It'll be interesting to see if it's wide enough to keep Ellen from falling off the right side.

I wanted to post a link that shows my results here, but apparently that's verboten.

As Scott noted, the two-axes graph's a bit, well, odd. Then again, graphing it on three axes would be a bit more difficult for people to visualize, though probably more accurate. I'd put the third axis as economic view, from socialist/communist to capitalist.

Now, as for my scores - I'm a "right social libertarian". right 7.35, libertarian 5.29.

On foreign policy I'm -1.02, fairly midrange. As for culture, I'm -3.17, which pushes me to the cultural liberal side.
