While I'm totally thrilled with W's victory, I'm totally bummed out about missed opportunity at tradesports. When Bush's number hit 27 and news began leaking out the exit polls were wrong I tried to buy but had no luck getting in. Just kept watching the number creep up and up.

Hardly a predictor, any more, I'd say. The IEM's TOTALLY bought the "exit poll" spin. Shows they are no more reliable than Drudge.

Bush was paying 3:1 at 2pm. By 8pm it was even odds. I tried to get in at 2 but they weren't taking new accounts :(

[IEM]Hardly a predictor, any moreBut a hell of a lot better than the lamestream when it comes to the end game.
The mindless cowards on the TV channels should take a look at those exploding spreads on the graphs--and GET REAL!

When the exit polls came out, around 7pm I got in at 28 then cashed out when I went to sleep. Couldn't get into Florida contracts, Oh well. Problem is I now know where the site is and this could be bad to my financial health.
I am so proud of our work for the last several months, and helped BUSH WIN. GOD BLESS AMERICA.
To: GeronL
So Cal Rocket said he made a nice profit Yup!! Not on the IEM, but on Tradesports.com. When the early exit polls came out showing Bush losing OH, FL, WV, etc. the bottom fell out of the "Bush Wins" Futures. I bought $500 worth at 35. That $500 has turned into $1,428.57.
Free Republic will get a nice chunk of this at the next quarterly fundraiser. Thanks for all you do, Jim!

I was so dejected yesterday afternoon with all the bad news exit polls that I decided I'd go ahead and put some money on Bush winning at 31 on Tradesports!!! Haha!!! And, right after buying, it started up through the roof as the states started coming in. Yeehaw!

I saw Bush number hit 20. Too bad I didn't have an account with them.
