    I've never traded binary options before so I just gave the numbers a quick glance. I stand corrected.

    Mav, your posts are more reliable than the VIX. The longer they are, the greater the sign of a dead market.

  6. I question your thought process, I guess 'question' is not the right word, Mr. Maverick. On the point of odds now versus the odds in October or November. Would not the simple fact that we have more information, from either side, lower the reward for the same risk?

    Cutten, did you make the same bet against Bill Clinton in the summer of 1992 when the only way he could get on TV was with MTV?

  9. I think cutten see this bet for very high probability/low risk. Simple and true. All the republicans fight with each other.

    How about a side bet on whether cutten is: A U.S. Citizen

    I've found politics and wagers can be a volatile mix, especially if you aren't a "local" where things are going on.

    At any rate if you want to be really depressed as someone with a "libertarian" bent, watch what is going on in the republican nomination process. A victory for the party in November will be a hollow one, and the nation will continue to unwind.
