Yet they have time to start this thread at 1pm and follow up with wishful posts every 10 minutes. Get back to work, puppet! Idiot post.

I just looked at betdaq. you can back obama at -833 and lay at -769 (euro/decimal odds)
The race is tight in Florida, New Hampshire, Ohio and Virginia. Obama is so far projected to have 64 electoral votes to Romney's 40.

Intrade remains detached from reality. God I wish I had more $$$. Never enough. I'd bet my house right now.

I've been shouting this for awhile. There has been a HUGE bettor trying to suppress the price at Intrade for weeks. The tougher question is why, Doesn't seem to be a profit motive.

As in everything else Political and gambling wise, Silver nails it:
8:26 P.M.Differences in Political Betting Markets Persist
I wrote in October about the unusual patterns at the popular political betting market Intrade. Throughout much of the year, the chances attributed to Mitt Romney at the market were more favorable than at other betting markets and bookmaking Web sites like Betfair.
One theory that might explain it is that, because Intrade is cited more frequently by the American news media, someone who wanted to influence the tenor of the coverage might have an incentive to bet on Mr. Romney there, even if the other sites offered a more favorable price.
If that were true, however, one might expect the differences to evaporate on Election Day itself, when the voting is over and there is little seeming benefit from affecting the news media coverage.
But instead, the differences have become more pronounced tonight. As of this writing, at 8:10 p.m., Mr. Romney was given a 30 percent chance of winning the Electoral College at Intrade, but a 15 percent chance at Betfair.
British bookmakers are much more in line with Betfair than Intrade, with some already showing Mr. Romney as a 9-to-1 Electoral College underdog.
