The prediction markets at intrade.com are a better gauge than any poll of the candidates national support. Rudy stands at 41% and Paul is at 7.3%. Obviously his support is much greater than the 2% the "legit" polls give him

It isn't 7.3 percent it is 7.3 dollars a share.

Yep which puts pauls support probably at around 3% if translated to polls, right?

Are these posts both a level of some sort? 7.3 dollars/share = 7.3% of the time Ron wins the GOP nomination.

Intrade is insurance for your maximum RP donation.
It is very cool.
If everybody maxed out and covered their donation on Intrade at the currently low rates, RP would have the nomination without a doubt.
