Since when is FR not a life?
Alleged Manipulation on IntradePersonally, I think that the smart money is looking at these new polls [Gallup traditional, the new Yahoo, etc], and is considering the Bradley/Wilder Effect, and is putting two plus two together to get five [or more].

People on here waste too much time on Intrade for sure. Nobody wagering on there has any inside information. They are following public polls and have generally the same perception of whatever the media is portraying.
FWIW a McCain aid said a little while ago that the reason they are in so called Obama strongholds is because of their own polls so evidently the REAL polls are showing a much closer race. Also they have Ohio and Florida solid blue on the map even though thats a false premise. They are far from in Obamas solid zone.
Intrade can and has been manipulated. No doubt it will be used to put despair into McCain voters.
Don’t waste your time or money there, it’s a con IMO.
Some guy likes to post why they are accurate, please spare me this time.
I’ve been wondering about Intrade as well. I had thought about putting some money down on McCain, but with the voter fraud I don’t think it’s such a good idea.
Fox News is probably tired of being called a right- wing network, even though I don’t see it at all. It looks conservative because all the other networks are run by communists.
