What were intrade’s numbers on obamacare being overturned?
LLS
They're just a small core group of "investors" with time and money on their hands, reacting to events.
Or, as I like to say, “The aptly-named colon powell.”
Wonder what the political affiliations of the intrade participants are. Perhaps its mostly wishful-thinking liberals.
Yay!
Intrade only had Paul Ryan at 4% for VP. They had their money on Portman.
That’s what happens when foreigners try to play U.S. politics.
I certainly don’t disagree. I have money on 53-47 and 330+ EV’s for Mitt.
Probably the obami campaign trying to influence the vote by bidding up FUBO.
No wonder they continue to beg for money, they need it for their bets.
US citizens can’t participate in Intrade legally.
The traders are mostly Europeans who get their news from the BBC or CNN International. Bunch of clueless idiots.
” The 17 percent who don’t need to get on board to remove Obama. We can cross the other bridge when we come to it.”
Agreed. Consider Romney a placeholder. I believe he will do some good (repeal Obamacare, open the keystone pipeline, defend our nation) and avoid some horrible bad (continuation of Obamacare, Supreme Court horrors).
“Some of the 17% are fellow Freepers, unfortunately.”
Radical Paulistineans, and Daily Kos shills...
LOL. That was good.
That’s good to see but I don’t trust this poll anyway.
Look how their LV sample moved in every direction in just few weeks. Now with a more or less reasonable Dem+4 Romney in where he’s supposed to be, but next week they can flip back a totally unreasonable sample.

We’re talking about Washington Post and ABC (Anything But Credible).
So...good to see but I don’t trust them anyway.
I don’t know if this has been talked about before but I have come to the conclusion that a lot of African-American church-goers think of themselves as “conservative”. So when a poll is conducted they label themselves “conservative” but also vote Democrat. This is an conundrum I wish Republicans could find a solution and peel some of this group from the Democratic hold.
Nate Silver is going by his gaydar.
Just watched ABC News ,,just to see them report on their own poll..lol, Diane Sawyer didnt even spend 5 seconds on it. This is good stuff.
Cold. Blooded.
