Intrade numbers don’t track percentages.

60 means Brown has a 60% chance of winning, not that Brown would get 60% of the vote.

I don't think he would get that much but truthfully, a blowout is the only way to stop Obamacare cold. Barney Frank said as much. The more votes he gets, the faster he can be seated and the message it sends to the Democratic leadership on the hill.
