Personally I don’t care where his poll numbers are. I got over worrying about that type of thing when I left middle school. I’m proud to be a Hunter supporter.

I guess I don’t know how to read Intrade. Could you please explain how these numbers pasted from the site relate to the initial post?
When there’s been no activity, the price drops down to essentially zero.
The latest activity on the play market shows the ask price at 4%, bid price at 0.5%, no middle ground transactions.

“Even if Hunter dies, I’d vote for him before Rudy McRomney.”
No kidding : )
Everybody I know favors Duncan Hunter over Romney or Guliani, with Huckabee second amongst many.
Relates to nothing, but I love your tag line!! :)
I posted this vanity so that we might have a way to counter the continual nonsense about Hunter only being at 1%.
And why do these guys waste their time on a supposed 1%er anyways? Because they know that he’s got more of a following than the MSM polls generate in their biased approach.
clinton was at about 110% vanity when he was elected.
On all the websites that let you choose the candidate by your views on issues....Duncan Wins! Hunter is the best on the issues, now we’ve just got to get through the media blackout.

Tancredo landed just behind the top conservative match, U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif.[snip]
This survey also has Hunter on top. When issues and votes are considered, Hunter comes out ahead.

“I’m proud to be a Hunter supporter.”
Me too!! singing “I’m proud to be a Hunter guy from Dakota do do do, do do do “ :)
“I posted this vanity so that we might have a way to counter the continual nonsense about Hunter only being at 1%.”
They only bring that up because that is all they’ve got, poor devils.
My 13 year old nephew took that test and he found out his perfect candidate is Duncan Hunter. He asked his dad(my brother, “who is Duncan Hunter?” My brother told him he is who your uncle(me) says is the best man running and we should vote for him! :)
And Duncan Hunter will continue to climb! Go Hunter:)
Maybe you can help me understand this.
If I buy a Hunter contract for 5% or $.50 and I sell it at 75%, I have made $7 from the buying trader.
What happens if I hold onto the contract and Hunter wins the Presidency(I believe I would make $9.5). Where does the money come from?
