Presidential Odds

Just an update on the only poll I think worth paying attention to - the betting odds on the Presidential race is now:

John McCain +$110
Barack Obama -$150

That means you would bet $100 to win $110 on McCain but have to risk $150 to win just $100 on Obama. As I keep saying - the race is drawing even and soon McCain will be the betting favorite. Obama may have pulled out to a large early lead but as the bookies say - "We don't pay for halftime leads."

Remember that for betting purposes -$120 is dead even (with the house getting the extra $20 as vig).
