Chris Dodd? Um, okay. Figures that my best match has already withdrawn from the race.

It's all Democrats at the top. What's weird is that in Australia, I'd be called conservative. I vote for the more right-leaning of the two major parties here.

The reason for that is that BOTH major US parties would be considered right wing here. Democrats would be somewhat right wing. Republicans would be verging on extreme right wing.

In Australia though our conservative party is similar to the Democrats, and our left wing party (the Labor Party) has no real equivalent in the US. I've heard Americans call the Democrats left-wing and I laugh ... to them, our Labor party must seem positively Socialist/Communist in comparison, lol.

Also a lot of these issues don't really exist here, so that might slant my results a bit. Good luck finding a single Australian that would argue against gun control, or against right to abortion. Those are just complete non-issues here. They were resolved 50 years ago and noone has thought about em since, really.
