That question was a very deliberate direct copy of Yvain's survey, so that if this survey has a smaller n and different population (as seems likely) we can say things like "35% of paleocons pick 'conservative' and 65% pick 'libertarian' out of those options and descriptions" and then make inferences to the broader LW population.

The results should be interesting. How long do you plan on keeping it open?

Depends on the flow of responses, but I can't imagine more than a week.
