Featured Job Survey: Office Politics?
Today’s ATL / Lateral Link survey is inspired by Super Tuesday. We’ve included political figures in our surveys last month, and featured a major political fundraiser as a Job of the Week the month before, but on Super Tuesday, politics rise to a whole new level.
So, as Barack and Hillary go toe to toe and Romney goes Reagan to Reagan with McCain, are the political tensions seeping into the workplace?

Lat,
You make no secret on this blog of your political leanings. Fine. But as a person of considerable learning and some sophistication--and a journalist, no less--you must know that the term "Democrat" is not an adjective, the views of Messrs. Bush and Limbaugh notwithstanding. For confirmation of this fact from a source almost as respected as your own, see: http://www.newyorker.com/archive/2006/08/07/060807ta_talk_hertzberg. Please make the appropriate correction on your survey. Thanks.
STOP WITH THESE MINDLESS SURVEYS
If Huckabee ends today with more delegates than Romney will Romney heed his own advice and drop out? I'm willing to bet he'll flip flop on that issue as well.
The percentage of this blog that is devoted to surveys, or responses to surveys, has really gone up dramatically. I know you are busy with side projects Lat, but you shouldn't let that interfere this much with producing new content for abovethelaw.
11:31 - This post isn't by Lat. It's by Justin Bernold, of Lateral Link.
11:32 / 11:52 - In case you haven't noticed, the survey and survey results posts are daily - and have been for quite some time. Don't expect that to change anytime soon, since it is part of Lateral Link's sponsorship of ATL.

The anti-Christian tone of the Huckabee survey is reprehensible and makes ATL look immature. A little respect, please.
Damn that Stephen Colbert, stealing credit...
2:02, I think you're referring to the survey responses that people were writing in, not the survey itself.
It looks like they turned off the write-in option to keep things clean.
Wow, Colbert is just crushing Conan.
And, apparently, West Virginia.
These surveys blow ass. Can't you kill your asinine relationship with Lateral Link and get back to running a legal gossip tabloid?
You left the most obvious and correct answer as to why Mike Huckabee won Iowa off of the survey! He supports the FairTax, which is the answer to our tax system problems. At least 85% of Huckabee's supporters are just FairTax supporters. There is a huge grassroots effort behind the FairTax that has been around for years, way before Huckabee picked it up. They have been rallying support behind him. Check out www.fairtax.org to see what I mean.
Why does the poll assume that I am voting at all? Because I'm not.
2:02, as soon as Christians start respecting reason, science, condom use, stem-cell research, non-Christians, and everything else that makes the world worth living for, anit-Huckabees will start respecting them back.
I LOVE THE SURVEYS -- very informative
11:33, you do realize that probably around 90% or more of the population of the United States would identify themselves as some form of "Christian", don't you? Only a very small minority of Christians have a problem with condom use, most merely have a problem with children having sex. No Christians, as far as I can tell, have a problem with stem-cell research. They only have a problem with killing unborn human embryos to farm stem-cells and would prefer other means of procuring stem-cells be exhausted first. Similarly, only a very small percentage of Christians don't appreciate other religions or belief systems. I guess the point of all of this is that stereotypes (especially ones that aren't true) shouldn't be applied to any group based on their race, gender, religion, nationality, sexual preference, etc.
Actually, only 72% of Americans identify themselves as some form of Christian (CIA World Factbook), and of those, 42% believe that humans have always existed in their present form (Pew Research Center). Both the Baptist Church and Catholic Church officially oppose both condom use and stem-cell research (see their respective websites). These are not "stereotypes," and they are frankly terrifying
