Romney Looks Like the Next Pres

Quote from atticus:

They are (delimited) digital options. Digitals refer to bets that payout at expiration. These differ in the sense that something could happen to either candidate prior to the election outcome.

The largest mkt is intrade.com in notional terms. The current line is 67/100 for Obama to win. So a $2 bet wins $3 (inclusive of stake). $4 returning $5 would represent an 80/100 wager, and that's simply not reflected in the intrade.com betting. A 4/5 payout is poor.

Romney is 33/100 on intrade.com. A $1 wager returns $3 ($4 returns $12), so your Romney wager is also poor, but not as bad as Obama at 4/5.

You risked 1 to get 1 with me!
 
Quote from atticus:

lol yes, but we knew the current lines at the time. It was discussed.

I didn't. But whatever i only quoted you to say that if I lose i am also banned for a month so i guess i will have to pm you for pay instructions because i have never used paypal or whatever we agreed to.
 
Nobody was tootin' the horn for Romney till he got crammed down your throat by the elite wing of the republican party.
How is it you can be so happy about him now?

We're not happy it's Romney. We're happy it's not Obama.

Because obama is a shit sandwich between a slice of salmonella on one side and HIV on the other.
 
Because so many aren't for Romney, is the reason so many will stay home on election day.
This, of course, works greatly to Obama's advantage.

This is, what I believe, to be the biggest error in the democrat calculation. The Republican base is energized - not because of Romney, but because of the chance to get rid of Obama.

You are completely incorrect (in my opinion). People will show up to vote ABO, much in the same way they voted for any republican regardless of quality in the 2010 congressional elections.
