I may have scored a little more libertarian if I would have noticed the "other stance" had the same answers with qualifiers. Otherwise, I can live with the results.
While neither of these are scientific authoritative studies, I find it interesting how several of the parties overlap.

The quiz failed to even address any of the issues that concern me and would not even remotely classify my political-leanings.
I tend to be very Republican on issues of less-government, less-taxes and less-IRS.
I tend to be very Libertarian on matters of foreign-affairs, trade and the UN.
I tend to be very Democrat regarding matters of personal preference such as Religion, Abortion, Sex and Minor Drugs.
In actuality I believe that items 1 and 3 are related (Liberties that government should not be involved with) and are closer to what an ideal "government" should practice.

With all of that going on you might just end up as a centrist on the whole.
My only issue with the claim that Republicans are for less government is that, while they say that, there is little evidence of them actually shrinking the size of the government.

Never considered myself a libertarian. I don't think how you answer a handful of questions defines you and how you fit in the big picture.
