Before the late-night funny stuff happened, Kerry was -300.

No... I played him early in the evening at -180, and scalped it out later. I think the highest Bush price was about +270 at Pinnacle.

Very different situation though, Kerry was 2% behind in the polls before the elections. Obama is 7% ahead.

I think the polls may be WAY off in this case. Hence the possible "bradley effect".

There's absolute no evidence the Bradley effect has existed in the last 20 years, and it's highly debatable it ever existed at all.
