National Journal’s Political Stock Exchange

This sounds like fun;

By tapping into the most advanced prediction market on the web, Intrade.com, NJPSE lets you buy and sell contracts whose ‘price’ (always between 0-100) represents the percentage likelihood a given outcome will occur. Think Fred Thompson’s rocky rollout has doomed his candidacy? Has Hsu sunk Hillary Clinton? Then sell! Sell! Sell! Do you believe John Edwards can ride an IA victory to Denver? You think John McCain’s ‘No Surrender’ tour can win him NH? Then buy! Buy! Buy!

    Just for interest’s sake, it’s actually “dam” – a small piece of lead which the tinker used when casting metal objects in a clay or earth mold. The dam kept the metal from flowing out of the hole, and was thrown away afterward. But damn seems to work better.
