An interesting way in seeing hoe the nominations market is doing.

these people bet on anything and everything:

"Tradesports has opened a new 0-100 proposition contract on Admiral Poindexter remaining on the Defense Advance Research Projects Agency(DARPA) payroll by August 31st 2003. . . . The contract will expire at 100 if Admiral Pointexter is still officially on the DARPA payroll by 11:59pm ET on the specific date. The contract will expire at 0 if for any reason (eg retirement) Admiral Poindexter is not on the DARPA payroll at this time."

They also have bets going on when WMD will be found in Iraq, and on the date of killing/capturing of Hussein and bin Laden.

...which has done races going back to Clinton/Bush I, ROF (Rest of Field, including Dean) is beating Kerry $0.42 to $0.30
