NEW YORK -- George Soros bet against Polish communism when Solidarity was still underground, and against Serbia's Milosevic when he was one of the most feared men in Europe. He bet against the dollar and made "the killing of a lifetime." Then he bet against the pound and made a bigger one.

And now Soros, a storied financial and political speculator, says another of his bets is about to pay off: more than $15 million against George W. Bush.

The Hungarian-born billionaire, who had vowed to spend more if necessary to deny the president's re-election, says he's contributed enough to achieve his goal. "There probably will be some further contributions, but I don't expect any substantial increase," he said. "Large numbers of people are beginning to see the Bush administration in the same light as I do. Frankly, I don't think I'll need to do a lot more. I now take the defeat of Bush more or less for granted."

Ironically, Soros gave $1000 to Bush Sr for his first presidential bid in 1980.
