Intrade on General Election: McCain 36, Obama 35
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 11:00 PM by comfycouch
McCain 35.6%
Obama 35.1%

I am taking these numbers from the "last" column. Is that the right one?

1. Yep. Those are the current odds. They're good odds, actually; they give
the Democrats a 2:1 advantage over Mac.

3. It's lIke using the stock markets to predict national economic future. Not very good.
They tend to react to the past much better than predict the future. What were the odds before Tue? This is crap for gambling addicts.
