Presidential Odds

There has been a change in the betting line on the Presidential race since yesterday. Today the odds are Bush -$170 and Kerry +$140 (this means you would have to risk $170 to win $100 on Bush or risk just $100 to win $140 on Kerry).

Yesterday the odds were Bush -$155 and Kerry +125.

A change in the odds is usually caused by more money coming in on one side than the other. More people must be betting on Bush (putting their money where their mouth is) than Kerry. This is the only poll worth following in my opinion.

For those interested - the Red Sox are a -$155 favorite to win tonight (vs. the Yankees who are at +$135). The over / under for the game is 10 runs.
