I’m “Upbeat.” What are you?

Take the 2005 Political Typology Test.  It must be scientific, ’cause the Pew Research Center is promoting it, and I hear about them on NPR all the time!

I bet you thought I was a "Pro-Government Conservative."  Not so!

Upbeats express positive views about the economy, government and society. Satisfied with their own financial situation and the direction the nation is heading, these voters support George W. Bush’s leadership in economic matters more than on moral or foreign policy issues. Combining highly favorable views of government with equally positive views of business and the marketplace, Upbeats believe that success is in people’s own hands, and that businesses make a positive contribution to society. This group also has a very favorable view of immigrants.

I admit, it’s not what I expected.  On the other hand, I am generally cheerful.
