To participate, please go to the Political Compass website and take their test. (Took me about 5 minutes). Please take the test, even if you have taken another political spectrum test recently, as each different test is somewhat biased in certain ways. Please take this specific test again, even if you have taken it before, so that the results are as accurate as possible.

Once you have taken the test, on the Analysis page you will be presented with a graphic image, with a red dot on it showing where you fall on the political spectrum. Please make a note of your politcal compass, the postive or negative numbers towards the middle of the page; the first will be Economic Left/Right, and the second will be Social Libertarian/Authoritarian. Please also note how you self-identify politically (ie. Democrat, Progressive, Liberal, Moderate, etc.)

You can post the results on my personal blog here, email the results to me (my email is on my peronal blog page, under the "View my complete profile" link on the upper right, or post them here in the comments. Your name and where you fall on the graph will not be identified in my article; the data points will just be plotted with no name next to them. I will be posting the completed article here on DKos for those interested, and on my own blog for those interested.

Again, please note you don't have to be a registered Democrat to participate, please just accurately state how you self-identify politically.

Thanks!
