InTrade fixing continues

The US-based Iowa Electronic Markets ( http://tippie.uiowa.edu/iem/ run by the University of Iowa) has a 'no action' letter from the CFTC permitting
it to operate and for US residents to participate).

It's like paying people money to be your friends.

As was rumoured by Mitt's campaign

funny how the words match up.

to lose every penny they think they're investing.

And so help me gawd I know what I'm doing in two years when the mid-term elections take place. What a fucking SCAM. I love it.

You can paint the tape for less than the price of a TV ad in a major market.

Bad news for the white house that is plastered on abc,cbs,nbc, msnbc, reuters Daily Kos.
Im not gonna post a link because im a Troll if I do that. Did they really need to find something to talk about. Im sure it will be endless non stop nonsense.

The right wing is drudging up a story about the WH receiving an email from a terrorist group claiming responsiblity for the embassy attack AFTER the attack happened. Somehow this is supposed to prove that the WH knew it was terrorism and planned. Terrorist groups are always claiming responsibility for attacks even ones that they did not actually do. And there are still mixed signals as to whether it was truly planned or spontaneous or a mix of both. The nuance is lost on conservatives. This may play for the rest of the week but I don't see it having a big effect on the election.

I was surprised that msnbc abc cbs nbc all jumped on it having it on there front page. I Figured just fox news and maybe cnn.

I doubt this will have much traction despite how much conservatives want it to change things.

Intrade moves just as much on news stories as polls.

Nothing contradicts what the WH has already said about this issue. Plus the stories just say that a group claimed responsibility on facebook and it mentions another group also claimed responsibility. There were also reports that it was totally spontaneous and thus these groups might have taken advantage of the confusion to claim responsibility for an attack they didn't do. I'm not sure what conservatives would have wanted? For the WH just to say a certain group actually did the attack, when it wasn't known for certain?

As I look at the electoral college map, it's not that different than what I think today's vote would be.

I expect Obama to get stronger before the election, but the map has Ohio as an undecided state but with Obama the favorite to win it. If he does, and all the other states hold true on this map, WE are at 271 and a victory, even if the other toss-up, Iowa, doesn't come our way.

To me, this map says we win.
