I got 32 out of 33... but... while many, if not most of the
 questions were matters of historical fact, or simple economics,
 a large percentage I gave the answer I thought they wanted, not
 necessarily the one I thought was correct. So much of the score
 was reading their minds, not giving established fact.

 In some cases I found several were correct, or none were clearly
 correct.

 Just like tests in school where you gave the teacher the answer
 you knew he wanted, not the one you thought was right. If any.

 Oh, the one I got wrong was one of those I gave the answer I
 thought they wanted. A case where I didn't read their minds
 correctly.

 JB> 30 out of 33, 90.91% .  I'd be willing to argue for 2 of
 JB> the 3 I missed. I am surprised the average is 78% .  I'd
 JB> have expected it was lower.

 I think I just agreed with you... above... maybe I should go lie
 down.

 JB> Democrats --  The party of trickle-up poverty ....

 Funny, economic growth does better under democrats, the stock
 market does better under democrats, and unemployment does better
 under democrats. Oh, and the poverty rate goes down under
 democrats, up under republicans.

 Funny that.

 Won't get into how the national debt load goes up under
 republcians.
