Given that caveat, here is how the candidates stack up against my views on 10 issues:
1. Ron Paul - 80% agreementI had previously ruled out Ron Paul, who says the right things on most issues, but who also keeps bad company. That leaves me with Romney. I'm surprised.
2. Mitt Romney - 80%
3. Mick Huckabee - 70%
4. John McCain - 60%
5. Hillary Clinton - 20%
6. Barack Obama - 10%
