In the new Marist polls, HRC lost 2 points in spread in Iowa but gained 10 points in NH

Guess which one is getting all the play?

NBC/Marist/WSJ

Iowa
September 33-28 (+5)
January 48-45 (+3)

New Hampshire
September 28-42 (-14)
January 46-50 (-4)

Yet both polls are being taken as positives for Bernie. Just weird.

In NH by far, he was ahead over 12 points last month now is within the margin of error. That's the story !

Every one in the media and in politics knows what is actually happening but logic means nothing to folks who have been taking their refreshments in little paper cups!

unless it's a horse race. So I expect a pretty good win for one or the other in each state...and personally, my money's on Hillary.

So are most of the betting sites, so the Bernites could make some serious coin backing up their beliefs with their dollars.

Started at 81% for Hillary, was down to 61% a few hours ago now at 74%.

As I've said in other places, now is the time predictive markets are most similar to gambling. Lots of investors willing to ride the long shot before the first vote is cast on the off chance that can make bank.
