I heard on public radio that the surest prediction of political races
is where the bettors are putting their money, they then proceeded to
say that that, too, is split so they didn't know.

That's not true. A $1 bet on Bush wins you $1.65. A $1 bet on Kerry
wins
you $2. A $1 bet on Nader wins you $1001. The betting odds favor Bush.




The only poll that matters will be held Tuesday. What's left of my gut
tells me that Kerry is going to do very, very well in the Electoral
College and might achieve the Magic 300 number. I haven't a clue where
the popular vote will be. But if Kerry wins the EC and Bush takes the
popular vote, I'll be especially delighted...because that means the
Republicans will be calling for abolishing the Electoral College.
Delicious.

I think the Electoral College should allow split votes from each state (the
way NH does it). Nevertheless, I predict:

Bush: 301
Kerry: 237

Bush by 4-5 points in the popular vote.

Too bad your predictions don't mean crap, huh?
