Bush still up

When on the away mission I had little time to keep up with what’s going on in politics. Upon my return I went to the Iowa Electronic Markets with some trepidation, fearing what I might find. So far Bush is looking good. Currently, in the Winner Take All market, Bush contracts are selling for $0.554 while Kerry contracts are fetching $0.445. The holder of the winning contracts gets $1.00.

I also checked with TradeSports.com. The have Bush shares selling for $55.30 and Kerry shares trading at $44.70. Remarkably close to the Iowa Electronic Market.

I jus wonder what “surprise” is in store for the current occupant of the White House. My take is, the media is pulling out all the stops to elect Kerry.
