This same group Intrade forecasted Obamacare would be struck down 90-10 by the Supreme Court.

What is Las Vegas saying? Where people are plunking down money that’s where it counts.

Before the Supreme Court decision on Obamacare this poll had it at 78% that the court would strike the law down. So I do not think the polls accuracy can be trusted.

Got to remember that as people finish up their vacations and the kids get back to school, look for an increase in the numbers for Romney/Ryan. Obama is showing more and more he is TOAST.

” Maybe not so out of whack considering Soros’ spanish company is counting the votes.”

Yeah..

Why don’t we just tell the RNC to let Obama count them? I don’t see a difference, quite frankly.

Hank, I’m conflicted over this one worse than ever before. Obama is the worst possible outcome for president. Then you look at Romney, and he’s the worst possible outcome as a representative of our cause from the Republican ranks.

This being said, I cannot help but be glad Obama will be swept away in a landslide. I just can’t get myself to vote for a man that has so little in common with me. There isn’t even the slightest chance I would vote for Romney.

If he was a Democrat, we would be unified against him. Now that he’s leading our ranks, most people are rooting for him and warning folks who won’t vote for him that they are supporting Obama. It’s laughingly, cryingly, humiliatingly a FAIL for Conservatism.

So yes, I do celebrate that Obama will be gone. And at the same time, I have a great deal of sorrow what that will wind up meaning. Things I don’t support at all, are going to happen no matter what I do this election.

The last four years, it has become readily apparent that the Republican party has no interest whatsoever in being the champion of our Constitution or Conservatism in general.

Romney supporters have absolutely not clue whatsoever, what we’re about to witness.

For all the adherence there’s going to be to it, both parties should just hold a ceremony where the U. S. Constitution would be burned, in celebration of it’s death.

No, it’s not too conspiratorial. They have been critical. Self-preservation is something even the vilest of cultures understands all too well.

LOL, ouch! I wasn’t aware of that, but it does seem like it could have been the case. Roberts had all our numbers on that one didn’t he.

Yes, I think he’s tipping his hand too. The emails begging for $3.00 are still coming fast and furious. Now that’s funny.

Intrade did such a good job “predicting” the SCOTUS ruling on Obamacare, why not go back to them?

There is absolutely no comparison between the SCOTUS ruling on Obamacare and a national election. The SCOTUS decision came down to one single vote out of nine, while the national election has millions of voters.
