Volokh Conspiracy has a great series of fresh analytical posts on the latest numbers (referenced by someone in an earlier comment) defining the liberal-conservative-libertarian divide.
My favorite parts:

As to the defenses that liberal academics have erected to conservatism on campus. I’m still not too worried about it.
