The thing I learned was that most leaders (as opposed to most people taking the test) do not take radical approaches to any one issue. If you 'strongly agree' or 'strongly disagree', you tend to drift significantly further in given directions. If I answered only agree/disagre on most of my answers, I'd drift significantly up and to the left. I'd say thats the issue with many politicians - that even 'leftists' or 'right' politicians tend to moderate their views, and end up in that upper-right partition.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
