Online betting site gives GOP 50/50 odds to keep the house
Edited on Wed Sep-13-06 04:52 PM by CatholicEdHead
After "President Bush’s strong national security speeches—especially his evening speech on 9/11—along with falling gas prices and a strong stock market" according to Larry Kudlow, the O'Rilley imitator on CNBC says.

If the online betters are looking for a reason, it is probably falling gas prices over the lastest "speeches" and market condition.

1. Kudlow!?!
:wtf: over! Kudlow's NOT all that reputable as The Wall Street Goons love the Republicans because they'll keep privatizing every damn thing and give away our tax dollars to the ultra-wealthy in the form of tax cuts and the suspension of The Estate Tax. :(

4. I hate to even try and call these things. Day after is my day.
I do not even think the polls get it.

5. I wouldn't put any stock into online betting....here's why.
Edited on Wed Sep-13-06 05:09 PM by Old and In the Way
One place Republican money could be effective is "betting" on themselves to retake the House. So what if they invest $10MM...if they can make the betting odds favorable, it could help build the smoke needed to help them steal it again. I just don't think they'll be sucessful this time.

Oh yeah, most importantly, Kudlow is clearly a flak for Bush Republicanism...he's a made man.
