You are a

Social Moderate
(56% permissive)

and an...

Economic Liberal
(15% permissive)

You are best described as a:

Socialist

You Are 68% Democrat



You have a good deal of donkey running through your blood, and you're proud to be liberal.

You don't fit every Democrat stereotype, but you definitely belong in the Democrat party.





You Are 4% Republican



If you have anything in common with the Republican party, it's by sheer chance.

You're a staunch liberal, and nothing is going to change that!



Color me totally unsurprised.

Also, I have concluded that all supposed hiccup cures (drinking water, drinking water from the far side of the cup, being startled, etc) are a consequence of some combination of the post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy, the intermittent reward idea in behavioral psychology, coincidence, people believing anything they're told, and people trying to make other people look stupid.

Heh, I'm totally unsurprised with your results too.

Although, as for hiccup cures: yesterday, I had the hiccups, and used one of the lesser known cures--eating a spoonful of peanut butter--and it worked quite well for a while. They came back earlier in the day, but the cure had worked a couple months ago as well.

I got "Democrat" (socially liberal, economically moderate, and very near "centrist") on the first one.

What really cracks me up is I got only 16% on BOTH the "How Democrat Are You?" and "How Republican Are You?" tests. This is pretty accurate, because I have major issues with both parties (though more with Republicans at the moment), but what amused me was that that score then assumed I was then "staunchly" the other, so I was told I was BOTH "staunchly conservative" and "staunchly liberal." ::g::

Some hiccup cures do work, but only for some people - it's actually a combination of individual physiology, the specific cause of the hiccups, and (of course) the power of placebo... which can also prevent meds from working if you don't believe they will, by the way.
