National Journal continues to ask ‘leading bloggers’ what they think of ‘the news of the day.’ The latest poll was published today. The questions we answered: “Are moderate Democrats helping or hurting their re-election prospects by resisting President Obama’s legislative agenda?” and “Should the 111th Congress increase the gasoline tax to fund a six-year highway bill?”

The second question is, of course, purely ideological. If you’re a liberal, you’re probably in favor of increasing taxes for this purpose. If you’re conservative, you’re not. The poll shows this as well. No surprise there.

But the first question isn’t ideological, or it shouldn’t be. It’s purely strategic. Are they or are they not hurting their reelection prospects by resisting Obama’s legislative agenda?

Although it’s not ideological in nature, liberals and conservatives are deeply divided on the answer nonetheless. A full 100% of conservative bloggers say moderate dems are helping their chances of being reelected, while 88.2% of liberal bloggers believe the opposite.

That’s a gigantic difference. So big, even, that I have to wonder about whether everybody answers these questions as honestly as possible or whether they’re spinning.
