Obama or McCain?

DateThursday, July 31, 2008 at 08:47AM

The Intrade contracts for who will become the next US President have begun to tighten a little bit over the last couple of days (see chart below).  On July 16th, the money was giving McCain a 30% chance of winning the election and Obama a 65% chance.  Currently, the odds are 38.7% for McCain and 59.8% for Obama.  Regardless of who you want to become the next President, which Intrade contract would you rather purchase right now based on the risk and reward for each one?  Let us know by taking part in the poll below.
