Campaigns & Elections Mag puts Prez race as toss-up.

[Pepperbelly]

I follow the Political Oddsmaker which has a pretty good track record on calling elections. They have had Bush the favorite for a long time but as the weeks have passed, the odds have been creeping out way. This site also a neato search feature that lets you look at odds on local races as well.

Check it out.

1. He used to list his past odds, and the dates he revised them....

he doesn't do that anymore. Too bad!

[Pepperbelly]

2. It's been a slow process ...

but you know how these guys work. 50/49 is pretty damned even I'd say. I think it started with 60%. Now, THAT was disheartening.

3. He says that the Repugs will keep the Senate.

Is this true? I hope not.

[Pepperbelly]

4. He keeps up all the way through the elections and things do change.

A lot.

No vacum here and close attention to events as they occur.

Who can say? In my homestate, Arkansas, his 60% liklihood for Blanche Lincoln is pretty much right on. Others will have to evaluate the rest of the races.
