It may be a good job at something, but as a way to make money it is some if the worst advice I have ever read.

Money placed on an Intrade proposition for Duncan Hunter to win the Republican nomination is money straight down the drain.

Unless you think that somehow, despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary, Hunter will somehow catch fire to the point that he is actually seen as someone who can WIN, you’d be better off giving your money to charity,because you could at least take a tax deduction.

There is a reason why there is no trade in a Hunter drop-out scenario. That’s because its a dead certian proposition, and there are no takers on the other side of the bet.

With God all things are possible...

I was encouraging Kevmo because he's sincere and trying to make a difference.

I am beyond disgusted with the 'powers that be' who have tried to ignore the most conservative candidate..running!

This cannot be what our forefathers had in mind!

***Then suggest the contract to Intrade and browbeat some Hunter followers to put their money where their mouth is. You get a double win if you’re right. But as it is, you are arguing from the silence of the evidence, which is a logical fallacy.
