Doesn't get much more blatant than this...
Ramesh Ponnuru post in The Corner:
"InTrade Rankings [Ramesh Ponnuru]
For whatever it's worth: InTrade still has Giuliani in the lead for the nomination (28.8 percent), but he is sinking fast. Romney is at 24.4, McCain has risen to 16.0, Huckabee is at 14.7, and Thompson is at 4.2. Implicitly, the market is saying that McCain is the most electable (43.8 percent likelihood of winning if nominated), followed by Giuliani (41.3), Romney (38.9), Huckabee (34.0), and Thompson (28.6)"

Ponnuru neglected, I'm certain accidentally, to tell his readers that someone else was in ahead of Fred Thompson -- Ron Paul at 8.2% chance to get the nomination, well above Thompson's 4.2%.
That is quite literally a Soviet way of reporting poll results.
