Remember the last big prediction the VP made in the weeks before the 2001 inauguration: He said we were on the front edge of a recession. He was right. I have my problems with him, but the man is not stupid.

2.Obrador was 65% favorite on election Eve in the MEX elections.

Kaine wasa 35% underdog a week before the VA 2005 election.

The point is that it's a place where Cheney could go to bet on whether the GOP will retain control of Congress.

I think cheney is betting on Karl Rove to do his usual magic. Who would you bet on before an election?

Karl Rove is the NY Yankees of Politics and Botox Nancy Pelosi is the Kansas City Royals.

How can anyone be more incompetent than Bill Clinton.

Jimmy Carter?

Cheney could bet at http://Tradesports.com if he wanted too, but he is too smart to bet at a sucker offshore site, so he would probably bet with Biden or Jay Rockefeller.

Not that I care but the House GOP contract has gone up to 45% from 35% last week. So the comments by the Philly Inquirer and NY Times that the House DEMS are fading is manipulating the market.

Would Biden or Rockefeller give him 5-4 odds on his money? There was probably some movement because of Cheney's comments.

Good catch and thanks. I suspected he was lying through
his teeth.
