Meaning?

Hi,

What is the meaning of hot-button and keep the field level and shifted into a subtle attack in the following text?

The questions (in the poll) had multiple parts and follow-ups, and were obviously designed to walk the voter down a path lined with hot-button issues. No effort was made to explain that the supreme court was not a legislative body, it did not have the responsibility or jurisdiction to make laws dealing with these issues. No effort was made to keep the field level. Like many polls, Rinehart's skillfully shifted into a subtle attack.

Please note that Rinehart is the man who has prepared the questions of the poll.

Thanks
