A noun, a verb, and POW

John McCain will announce soon who will be the Republican vice presidential nominee.

Reading the Press this early Thursday morning does not give any insider’s clues.

  1. Chris, when linking to InTrade VP markets, remember they are offering two variants – one with a “field” contract and another, newer market, with an “others upon request” option.

    In the Dems case, the older field-option seemed to be more liquid and otherwise better performin.

    In the post you link to Romney’s contract in the newer request-option market, but you could have also linked to the Romney contract in the older field-option market. (I tried to insert the chart here, but the comment system won’t let me. -MG)

    Interestingly, in the Dems case the older market seemed to have much higher total volume, wwhile in the GOP case the markets look more comparable in volumes.
