Political Markets
Interestingly enough, Bush is losing in every possible matchup in the Iowa Political Markets' 2004 vote share market.
When you add up all the bids and asks for all the possibilities, a Democrat has 55.3% of the market, and Bush has 47.8%. Most interesting is the Dean/Bush matchup, also Dean leads the market devoted to the Democratic nominee market.
Republicans are trying to build up the conception that Dean is a weak candidate, echoing Bush with "Bring Him On" op-eds and sound bytes. People who actually wager money on this kind of thing are also saying Bring Him On, and are betting he'd win.
