A bit of Republican in me

Took a short quiz and the results based on my answers is that I am:

94% Democratic in my thinking and opinions

83% Green Party oriented (Solar power and such)

64% Socialist (Down the establishment)

62% Libertarian (Sorry)

and proud to say-

39% Republican (No one is perfect - but don't kick me off DU)

It is a short quiz and results are fun:

Superguy in everything I do - an overachiever . I guess you now know I work for Fox News when they want their graphic statistics done.
Now you know what the results are, shame on you for pointing out that obvious glaring mistake. The % numbers represent what category my answers would fall in.

but:

Dems 96%

Green 94%

Socialist 65%

Libertarian 46%

Constitution Party: 18%

Republicans - drumroll- 2%. (Now how did I get a whole 2% with them?)

The only one that surprises me is not being higher for Socialists.
