Candidate Match Game II
Play USA TODAY's Candidate Match Game II to find out which candidate -- Barack Obama or Mitt Romney -- you agree with most on the key issues of the day. And as you take the quiz, learn more about their positions on the issues.
As you select your answers, the graphic slides more to the candidate whose views are most like your own. As I answered the questions, I was surprised to see the percentage ebb and flow from one candidate to the other. In the end, however, my score was 76% in favor of Romney.
Still, I thought that the real outcome of the test should have been the likenesses morphing into a single image. That's what politics has become, after all...two sides of the same coin: a plugged nickel.

I was surprised to find out that I am less in favor of Romney than you are. . . only 73%. Interesting!
Mine tilted a little more towards Mitt when I used the slider feature to show which issues are the most important to me and by how much.
For example, illegal immigration is an important issue to me, of primary concern. Also, I'd like to see military spending cut and also put that towards the extreme end. I was surprised to see certain "liberal" positions of mine lean more towards Romney than Obama.
As I said, neither candidate is an ideal one for me. I'd prefer anyone but a big govt. type, but nearly all candidates have shown by past actions that they have and will increase the size of govt. The only one who wouldn't, by my own criteria, was Ron Paul. I didn't agree w/ him on every issue, but more than enough to give him my support.
Thanks for taking the test and posting!
