Where Are All the RWDBs?

Update: Tim Lambert has been graphing these political scores for a while, I now find out. The one I wrote about below is aimed at Australian bloggers, rather than the global population. Results are here. You'll agree that they show a much more even spread of political views.

Ken Parish at Troppo is bored with the constant right / left wing 'labelling contest' that regularly occurs in the blogging world. He has suggested that bloggers take the 'political compass' test to find out where they stand in the political spectrum.

To facilitate the comparison of individuals in the Aus Blogger political spectrum, Tim Lambert has set up a system to graph the results of anyone who cares to take the test to show where they stand relative to each other.

The Pigs lie at ....

Economic Left/Right: -4.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.26

Notice how most bloggers (including yours truly) are grouped in the lower left hand corner? What a touchy / feely bunch we appear to be!

Anyone with any experience of the political blogging world knows that the divide is much more balanced than the graph indicates. What's happened to the RWDBs; the Bunyips, Currency Lads, Evil Pundits, and Tim Blairs of the blogging world?

They're not usually shy about showing where they stand. Hopefully, word gets to them so they can participate and let the rest of us know just how right wing they really are.
