Who will be president? Lets make a bet!

ivwshane · 10-14-2008, 10:39 PM

Lets make a friendly wager here and lets see who is right.

Who do you think will be our next president and by what percentage?

-=Lurker=- · 10-14-2008, 10:44 PM

J.P Morgan - 100%

I could care less but I'll say Obama by 20+ What do the odds pay out? :P

ivwshane · 10-14-2008, 10:45 PM

I think Obama will win by at least 12 points and about 10 points will go to a 3rd party candidate.

OcTaNe91 · 10-14-2008, 10:52 PM

obama 14+

krod · 10-14-2008, 10:58 PM

Obama, I'm a homeless dude in Ohio and Acorn just took me around to cast absentee ballots in 14 different precincts so I'll say 14%. But seriously, missing ballots, malfunctioning machines, this election day is just going to be a mega-clusterfuck for the history books. I just hope I'm wrong.

mattdev · 10-14-2008, 11:07 PM

Are we going by popular vote or electoral vote?

..and who's willing to put money on it? I am.

Jishory · 10-14-2008, 11:13 PM

according to digg obama should be getting about 113% of the votes

Popular vote.

I just lost 8 grand in the stock market, I can't afford to bet with real money

ninefivezero · 10-14-2008, 11:21 PM

Obama by 8 points.

Juballharshaw · 10-15-2008, 12:20 AM

Obama, less than 5.

gB dAvId x · 10-15-2008, 12:24 AM

What about Nadar

mattdev · 10-15-2008, 12:26 AM

Obama by 5. He doesn't have as much of a lead as the media makes it out to be. Plus I really don't think he's going to take Ohio/Florida. My bets are on North Carolina, though.

$10 says that he takes North Carolina. Any takers?

(I do have a bit of inside information here because I did work for the campaign in that state)

My bet, Sara Palin will win! McCain will win the election, but then the conservatives will stab him in the back! As he lay dying, he will utter "et tu, Palin?"

My own feeling is it's going to be too close to call.

Wedge_ · 10-15-2008, 11:34 AM

I think it could still go either way, and it'll probably be close, a few points at most. I'd be really surprised to see either candidate win by a significant margin.

	Say goodbye to our beloved planet. Because there is alot more money to be made in emitting greenhouse gasses, than curtailing emissions. Get out of the box, then recycle it.
