Don't worry:

Mr. Edwards said the firm weighted certain responses, which would explain the outsize popularity of relatively low-volume models like the TSX wagon and A8.

Well we own a TSX wagon and a CR-Z, therefore I "should" have been supporting Ralph Nader all these years

I see you changed your avatar - did the NRA kick you out based on your choice of cars?

Hardly. If anything they approved of where I store my firearms and ammo in both vehicles

Fellow wagon owners can take a guess

From the NY Times:

Among Democrats surveyed, the top picks were the Honda Civic Hybrid, Volvo C30, Nissan Leaf, Acura TSX Sport Wagon and Ford Fiesta. Of Civic Hybrid owners, 60.94 percent identified as Democrats, and most lived in San Francisco or New York.

So Democrats are practical and, *gasp*, exercise "personal responsibility" too? Who knew?

Actually, while fun to read, the results are skewed by the driving environment. NY and SF trend toward Democrat, and being cities, favor smaller cars. Fun cars are just a pain in NY and snow.

So the TSX wagon isn't a "fun" car?

I put guns where the fogs are on my TSX, just in case anyone thought I had converted.

They are bluetooth activated. You call me, the guy in front gets shot.

I take that back. TSX is a lot of fun.

Maybe I should say impractical fun cars -- convertibles, RWD muscle cars, cars that are expensive to insure, cars that will kill you if you take a corner too fast, and the like.

The TSX Wagon is fun, practical, and will try to save my life if I do something stupid.

Awesome mod. Fogs are nice and low, so if you line yourself up just right, you can take out the two rear tires of the car in front of you,
