I had it mind what my political leanings were, but always was curious how my answers held up against scrutiny. I was reading another blog, and saw this great – albeit very simple – site that asks a few questions, and gives graphical output allowing for 5 overall outcomes, and shades of variation based on answers.
I was not surprised on the outcome, and that seems to follow my stands on most issues. If the chart comes out quite opposite of what you feel, double-check your answers. If they are still far different, you may have learned something new about yourself.

Interesting… for me, it probably is a bit simplistic. Then again I am the type of person who would argue the meanings of the Myers Brigg questions. Not sure how I can even be considered libertarian these days.
One that I seen that I think is good is http://www.gotoquiz.com/politics/political-spectrum-quiz.html . It also considers importance of an issue to you in its calculation.
Sorry for the late addition to your post. It found the spam filter (probably because of the link). Won’t happen again!
It happens to the best of us.
Great site as well. I ended up with the same outcome: Leaning Libertarian, and slightly right, but close to center. Takes a lot longer.
