Hagel wins when most of the liberal democrats stay home and refuse to vote because of Lieberman. I can't see them voting for Hagel except for Iraq.

Who would I vote for? Undecided at this time.

This would be a very weird matchup.  Given that Iraq war is still probably the biggest issue among the general public, you'd probably have, for one, very low turnout, and for two, an inversion of who's voting for who (where the biggest opponents to the war vote Republican and the biggest proponents vote Democrat).

Lieberman/Hagel

As Mikey said, the social liberal base probably wouldn't be turning out at all, this means an easy Hagel victory. Not to mention, the anti-war voter block would probably be more in Hagel's corner than they would be in Lieberman's.

I'd still vote for Lieberman... I disagree with Joe on a few things... Mainly the war and his odd support for censorship... He's still a Democrat whom I could agree with on most things.

If this is for President, Lieberman would be by far the worst of the 3. He'd probably start World War III. I'd vote Ron Paul, he'd be sure to be a 1 termer.

I'd vote for Ron Paul.  Although I'm closer to Joe Lieberman ideologically, that doesn't change the fact that he's a sellout.  At least Ron Paul has principles and stands up for them.  (Interestingly enough, he votes with Socialist Bernie Sanders nearly 70% of the time even though the two are supposed to be polar opposites in ideology.)  If it weren't for the past 6 years of the Bush administration and ESS, I'd consider voting for Hagel.

Hagel would win all 50 states, and Washington DC would be a battleground "state".  The Democratic base would be divided and have a low turnout, and Lieberman wouldn't have any core constituency.  On the other hand, Hagel has most of the conservative credentials he needs to hold on to the Republican base.

I'd vote for Hagel. I can't see Ron Paul running an entire country...the thought is a little scary.

I'd be easily satisfied by either Lieberman or Hagel, though my vote would probably go to Hagel, if only on the war issue.
