According to University of Iowa political science associate professor David Redlawskto there are four voter types: rational, intuitive, confirmative, and fast and frugal. Each category of voter uses a different decision-making process. According to this study I'm a rational voter. Which one are you?

    Tim--

    Rationally fast and frugal in my confirmative, yet intuitive selection process.

      Mr.X

      Thanks for the seed, interesting.

      Hmm, it says I am a "rational" voter. I make most of my decisions the same way, I choose the desired outcome, then I back track , kind of like an upside down hierarchy chart, and McCain would not be any help at all in producing my desired outcome.

      If Obama beat the hell out of a mcCain supporter and etched a backwards "B" in her cheek, I would still vote for him!
