Does seem like an accurate scale jfern.  The fact that probably at least 10% of Americans are on the libertarian quadrant says that we're way underrepresented in congress.

If Ron Paul's in any way representative of what they'd act like, you'd certainly see some extremist rhetoric.

Paul's not extremist.  He states the reasons why people vote for him is because the farmers like their gun rights protected and the government kept off their backs.  He's against his party with his opinions on the war-not an extremist though.  He is a staunch defender of liberty-something more of our representatives should be for. 

But it would be better if more libetarians were elected as it would provide for balance against the standard 'big-government' types.  The quiz shows that the statist and liberal camps are too large by comparrison.
