Not necessarily to vote for Romney, but to vote against Obama. I agree that Romney has the best shot to win, because he would be more acceptable to the independent voters.

Although I managed to win $50 betting on the Lakers on Xmas day (it was only the second sports book bet I've ever made), I don't understand the betting all that much. Once somebody says they bet a "round robin" my eyes glaze over. <br /><br />If this was a sports bet, wouldn't it just be something like -120 for Obama, +140 for Republican candidate? How do you buy shares and get paid off?<br /><br />And are you saying based on the model you are sighting, betting that Obama will lose is a good bet?Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767080296489122846noreply@blogger.com
