You DISAGREED with the Barack Obama position on 37 of the 48 test questions. This means you disagree with the Obama position 77% of the time.
The way the questions were worded was confusing. Also, some of the questions only had the answer of better or worse when, IMO, the same would have applied as well. For what it's worth, the author of the quiz wrote an anti-Obama book.

This is biased right wing bs, you can tell by the wording of the questions that they WANT you to disagree.
4. Some say Barack Obama’s plans to implement sweeping environmental regulations will raise the cost of gas, groceries, heating and air conditioning. Do you favor or oppose Obama’s environmental plans?
So biased. Who says this anyway? Rush? ::)

Doesn't take much to see that these carefully worded questions much to simplistic for a yes or no answer.

Mmmm, feel the bias. It's good to know we live in a world that is black and white in regards to decision making and that levels of nuiance don't exist that might make making a choice a bit more complicated than what the survay suggest. Anyway, I ignored the bias on most of the questions and answered based on exceptions that the quiz wasn't providing. Surprise, surprise, I agreed with Obama most of the time.

Shouldn't the question be "Do you favour or oppose what some say about Obama's plans?"
Phil's quiz
Q1. Some say McCain is an intellectually deficient dimwit with a VP who's even worse. Do you favour or oppose having another idiot in power?
