Political Typology
Michelle Malkin points to an online quiz from Pew Research which categorizes people into one of nine political groups (including the terminally apathetic, called “bystanders”).
Unsurprisingly, I am an “Enterpriser“, which is an “extremely partisan Republican group”:
Assertive on foreign policy and patriotic; anti-regulation and pro-business; very little support for government help to the poor; strong belief that individuals are responsible for their own well being. Conservative on social issues such as gay marriage, but not much more religious than the nation as a whole. Very satisfied with personal financial situation.
Which is about as accurate as a horoscope. I am in favor of government help to the truly needy (although I would rather it be placed in the hands of charities), support gay marriage (although it is not one of my “hot button” issues, and am not all that satisfied with my personal financial situation (although according to Democrats I am fabulously wealthy).
According to this test I am about 57% Enterpriser and 60% Conservative Democrat.

… and I think this survey by the Pew research center needs glasses. I came out an Enterpriser,
which is only…
