I used my candy thermometer on christmas eve and it still has moisture inside. It has 2 holes in the top where the water has seepted out after washing it. But by now surely it should have been dried inside. Do any of you have this problem?

I've had that happen to me. It took a long time to dry, but it finally did.

It may take up to a week or so for it to dry out, depending on how humid your house is. There really isn't any air circulation inside it :D:D:D
