Just wondering if anyone has any money on the election? I have about 3 units on Obama at -130 and was going to put a little more on him today and seen it was up to -330 in 2 weeks !!!!! WTF happened so drastic besides Palin looking like a fool in the debate but I didnt think that would push it from -130 to -330.

I am still kicking myself because I was going to take Biden for VP at +825 2 days before he got picked and chickened out .I had my bet ready and all I had to do is hit submit but I am a moron and chickened out. ::headbanger:: ::headbanger::

You don't think McCain is going to win ,do you???

Obama is pulling away in the polls and experts say he doesnt even need Ohio now to win.

I took a chance at -130 but after seeing how much he is gaining in the polls was going to put more money down today just to see -330 . At the odds now its not worth the bet because I think these odds are right on . I'd say if McCain get to +400 it would be worth it at that price ::handshake::

I am not saying McCain will win Luke. I am not betting the election at all. I just wanted to be credited with being the first person to type VPILF.

I'd say wait another week you might get 4 to 1 on McCain


Wish I had 12 to 1 on Obama

I took it hoping for the opportunity to hedge him out for a guar-t profit. Now it is just a matter of when, and how much. I was hoping Nailin Palin was gonna shot the ticket in the foot and get 5-1 right after the debate.

Don't keep up with it, not even sure I could tell you who was running.. don't vote, don't care (whatever happens is going to be just that). My one vote will never make a difference IMHO. All I pay attention to is my family, job, sports investing and living the good life (also throw my cars in there somewhere lol). Don't give one shit about politics I only adjust to what's thrown at me.. it's worked so far and I'm not changing. ::beerchug::

I keep up enough to know whats going on .

I do agree though my one vote isnt going to change anything

I mean seriously all these experts already know which way 80% of states are going to vote before the voting day. There are only a few states where its a toss up (8 I think) but I happen to live in one of those. I dont see why anyone under 60 would vote if they already know who won there state. For old people voting is one of there top outings of the year.

I'm envious of the wiseguy who got 12-1 last nov. but this ain't like football where the
StLouisRams can beat DallasCowboys on any given Sunday.With modern polling you don't get a Truman upset so i'll treat it like an odds-on stakes race with a show bet on
Curlin in a 5 horse race and dump a wad the night before the election and lay probably 850-1.

I just went to site and Obama is -750 10/22/08 and you know the fix is in because some books have stopped taking action on US election. BetCris for one.Whats weird is
I can still bet it with my local who works online,and he's a bedrock Republican.

I seen some books have not only stopped taking bets on the election they have already paid out bets for Obama
