Thank you

I keep warning people it’s a real shady operation from Ireland
And just lawless operation .

Whining? Hardly a$$hole, I’m trying to figure out wtf is holding the Kenyans numbers above 60, when EVERY bit of new out there shows the race either tied or tilted towards Romney.

BTW, it’s a vanity if you don’t want to read it, then move the eff along.

“What in the hell is holding up Obama’s support”

Foreigners reading European newspapers....

Obama has all the electoral votes in Europe and Middle East tied up....

InTrade can be moved by less than a carrot

Great point - I will remember that next time before posting about how the clown is a hands down favorite on Intrade.

From Battle Ground blog... one of these charts is for the Nasdaq during the dotcom meltdown in 2001... The other is obama's current intrade chart. Can you guess which is which?

If you have a collection of rich sugar daddies like Obama willing to waste money, you can get Intrade to say anything you want

Remember when I said it's the equivalent of a bar bet? The only thing holding up Obama's bet price is pride.

There isn't any rationality in these bets. It's all emotional. And any rationality goes out the window when someone is willing to spend a $100,000 or so to swing the market in the desired direction for their own purposes.

Read the posting by someone who did exactly that with only $10,000 in the Iowa Electronic Market in 2004.

No, it's what is called a "concern troll". Knock it off.

There is absolutely an opportunity to make money on intrade right now.

Obama voters appear to have currently spent some (advertising) funds on intrade. They started to bail a couple days ago but recently doubled-down.

Could not swear that is the case, but it very well could be.

I’m not signed up there, but an investor could make a lot of money on intrade by buying in ahead of this Tuesday’s debate.

Just saying.

There is nothing shady or lawless about Intrade. It is legal in Ireland. However, it is not legal for US residents to bet there, while in the US.

At betting parlors in the UK, you can bet on all kinds of things. Not just sports, but elections, weather, science, and all kinds of events. Check out the list of markets on Intrade, and you’ll find lots of interesting things and you will wonder who would bet on some of them.

But, no one should think they predict anything. All Intrade does is provide a service to gamblers.
