| Subject: | 40% chance that democrats take both house and senate |
and 6% chance that republicans keep both. ... according to the prediction market at tradesports.com. Question: What do you all think of allegations that Republicans are cheating? Here's some damning evidence from the GOP itself: http://www.gop.com/News/Read.aspx?ID 18 From that page: "For reasons that remain unclear, Democratic voters are more likely than Republicans to agree to interview requests from pollsters." (Just to spell it out: If the exit polls favor democrats and the real polls favor republicans, there are two explanations: 1. a democratic bias in exit polls. 2. a republican bias in the real polls. What makes 1 more plausible? Seriously, how do Republicans answer that? This is scary!) -- http://ai.eecs.umich.edu/people/dreeves - - search://"Daniel Reeves" "Verbing weirds language." -- Calvin (of Calvin and Hobbes)
