The short version:

1. Beware a Republican win against a split “Democratic” ticket.

2. Lamont spent less money than Lieberman, so money doesn’t always unseat incumbents.

3. Speech beat Lieberman, not finances. We should re-separate the two. Can you hear me, Supreme Court?

Some questions for Professor Fishkin: how much does this cost? Do you generally run polls on public or private money? My idea is to get a bunch of rich philanthropists into a deliberative poll about deliberative polls themselves. You can have Richard Posner present the case against deliberation, then trounce him and take all that money and give me a job. It’ll be fabulous.
