As of last night the odds on Bush were running 53% (closing price was it cost $5.30 to buy a $10.00 bet on Bush) at http://www.tradesports.com and http://www.intrade.com (I think they're the same). As of now, a $10 bet on Bush has dropped to $3.90, and $6.24 to buy a $10 bet on Kerry.

I put 2k down last night with my local sports guy. He gave me basically $4.50 for $10 for Kerry. It was a bit worse than the sites were giving at the time but I don't have to give him a CC# and I know I will get paid.

He was just on MSNBC talking about how the stock market taking a nose dive has made him nervous. See, peeps with money know that money talks.
