Real money prediction markets have a very good track record.

People invested heavily in "Dot Coms" in the late 90's only to watch them fall apart, all the while sustained and supported by the Clinton adminstration.

Perhaps all these people "investing" are people who are simply following the liberal polls. Much the same way the Clinton regeime touted the "new economy" they are embracing a future as promoted by liberal polling.

And as we have seen so many times before, liberal hopes seldom reconcile with the reality of a given situation.

Here's a test ... DID TRADESPOTS GET THE 2002 RACES RIGHT?

In 2002, there was some GOP 'upside' surprises, as we did better than expected by the pundits/media. Wonder if the tradesports followed the polls, or were closer to actual results.

FWIW, I think we will do better than that implied loss of 21. 12-18 loss is my range, IMHO, we hang on close or we lose but not by much.

I do believe there are some polls not right.
