By the way, the Iowa Electronic Market allows you to buy options for who will win the election. This is NOT a poll it is people placing their money on who they think WILL win not who they're voting for. An option at full value of $1.00 would mean that people feel that candidate was 100% likely to win the election. Bush options are at $0.51, SKerry is at $0.48. 128.255.244.60 Also the value of Rep holding the house is $0.44, vs the value them losing the house is $0.14. The Senate doesn't look as good for republicans. $0.18 that they'll hold vs. $0.40 they'll lose. Jim
