  4. As I predicted, the Intrade bet at 27% Romney was a good one. Out at 34%, I think I missed a tick or two at or around 40%. Good job Romney! Obama, time to wake up and get back on your game.

    In all fairness, Romney was very good last night. I have no problem saying the facts.

    CNN poll of registered voters who watched the debate said it was Romney 67 - Obama 25. The poll also saw that Romney was better on the economics and more likable. CBS poll of undecided voters saw Romney as the person they would morel likely vote for by something like 35 to 18.

    In my opinion it was not that Romney was that good. Romney was basically a very competent. And that is all we needed, wanted and demanded. We knew thousands of competent attorneys, ceo's, and sales people who make presentations in the private sector can destroy these failed economic policies. We wanted the fruits of leftist policies to be exposed to the light without Krugman and the media to immediately help the the president bullshit.

    This was what every person with real business experience has basically been screaming for.


    So today for at least 24 hours... reality based economics kicked the ass of trickle down big govt leftist fantasyland.

    That is what we wanted to see... Romney is now certified to lead.

  6. OK, Romney did really well. Going forward now, I have a question for you guys.

    I was asked to check the European betting sites about Obama and Romney.

    I came up with this, but not sure I'm reading it right.

    Are they saying that if you bet $4 you get back $5 on Obama, and if you bet $4 you get back $11 - is that right?

    AK? Anyone?

    Romney conducted himself far better last night than I expected he would.

  8. They are (delimited) digital options. Digitals refer to bets that payout at expiration. These differ in the sense that something could happen to either candidate prior to the election outcome.

    The largest mkt is intrade.com in notional terms. The current line is 67/100 for Obama to win. So a $2 bet wins $3 (inclusive of stake). $4 returning $5 would represent an 80/100 wager, and that's simply not reflected in the intrade.com betting. A 4/5 payout is poor.

    Romney is 33/100 on intrade.com. A $1 wager returns $3 ($4 returns $12), so your Romney wager is also poor, but not as bad as Obama at 4/5.

    I also note... that what I thought was obvious.
    Obama looked weak and defensive and had to stick to his talking points for the opposite reason he looked great as a challenger.

    A challenger does not have to worry about a minefield of problems.
    Obama did not have the freedom to open his mouth and say what he wanted... because almost everything he could say would be destoryed by one of his failures.

    What could he say which would not have let Romney say..
    23% under or unemployed and that maybe understated.
    Trillions more debt instead of the promised cut.

    When Obama was talking about his own trillions in tax cuts... Romney said... I love your trillions in tax cut comment .. only the budget office said you have a trillion in debt scheduled for next year and the year after that etc.


    Failed leftist polices kept Obama meek.... not the altitude.

    So right. This is going to be Obama's failing at the next two debates also. No where to turn without running into a failed policy.

    But today, with no one there to rebutt his lies, Obama is back on the stump letting the BS fly.
