This website tracks a few prediction exchanges.

Republican numbers are slowly getting better. I think this is a good sign

Congress control numbers are looking good as well: http://www.predictwise.com/politics/2012congressparty

I don’t mind if it’s just me holding this thought, but any group that promotes the idea Obama is ahead nearly 56 to 44%, has jumped the shark.

Do I think public opinion has already pretty much settled on who folks are going to vote for? Yes, pretty much.

Do I think it’s Romney/Ryan. Yes I do.

Watch these figures do a whipsaw in the next week or two. All of a sudden, it’s going to become apparent that Obama is going to suffer a savage electoral beating.

Then we can get down to reality here. There’s an awful lot of wishful thinking out there. Obama is toast none the less.

After the break: Leftist wailing and gnashing of teeth...

That site also told us for sure that Obamacare would get tossed.

Why do people think that because some people are betting money on outcomes that it has some magic inside-track is beyond me.

Shouldn’t we be looking at the winner of the Monday night footall game the weekend before the election for our prediction? Isn’t there some squid that turns a certain color that can make election predictions?

If Romney loses, we BETTER pick a 100 percent conservative in 2016 because obviously the GOPe is picking these liberals and they are not looking good to the American people. How many times do we have to remind the liberal Republicans that Liberal Republicans can’t win. They have tried it with Bob Dole, John McCain and now Mitt Romney...Three times and you are out. We win with social conservatives....Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. His father was a moderate who won on the coattails of Ronald Reagan.

Intrade did such a good job “predicting” the SCOTUS ruling on Obamacare, why not go back to them?

In 2008, InTrade had Huckleberry winning the Republican Nomination for a about a month after McCainiac clinched it. So take this with a whole Jimmy-Buffet-Margarita-sized shaker of salt.

Before the Supreme Court decision on Obamacare this poll had it at 78% that the court would strike the law down. So I do not think the polls accuracy can be trusted.
