Poll question: Clinton vs Huckabee Vs. Bloomberg-led Coalition of National Unity w/ Lieberman
You know that Lieberman is going to join the CNU!

1. Why with Lieberman?
I doubt that Bloomberg would choose Lieberman. I think he's smarter than that. I've heard he's been talking to Sen. Hagel.

4. This poll won't assume that Joe will be the VP candidate.
Just that he would join the coalition in some capacity.

10. I will qualify it then: in this poll Lieberman joins the coalition, but not necessarily as a VP. nt

Why not just go ahead and call her Hitlery and be done with it?

21. I haven't heard anything about her wearing a brown shirt or a funny mustache
...so calling her "Hitlery" would be ridiculous. However, it is a fact that she meets with a dominionist fundie prayer group. Does she support their entire agenda? Her ridiculous stand on video game censorship would seem to indicate that they DO have some influence on her.

8. That is an interesting question.
I would certainly say that none of us here should vote for Bloomberg, but at the same time he may take away more votes from the Republican, so it might be good for us to encourage people who voted for Bush* in 2004 to vote for Bloomberg if they absolutely will not vote for the Democratic candidate.

7. This poll is disingenuous in its use of Liberman
There is no indication that he is going to join Bloomberg.

11. I'm a southerner, but
I must confess I have completely missed the Bloomberg attraction.

I see him as getting 1 % of the vote if he runs.

Am I missing something?

14. well...
he's socially liberal and economically conservative. I think Huckabee is too scary religious for many... and they're will probably be a percentage still looking for the Hillary alternative. Im just speculating, of course, but I think he could suck up the middle ground.

16. Gary Hart and Bob Graham have joined
I don't se Lieberman being part of it. I'd have to give serious consideration to a Bloomberg/Hart candidacy.

17. Christ, adding Lieberdick in there makes all the choices repugnant.

18. Lieberman endorsed a Republican
I'd expect him to endorse Giuliani/Huckabee/Romney if they end up winning the nomination.
