LOL... you're the handicapper? If anything, Perknose was as when the bet was made, O'Donnell was the favorite. That was until the "I'm a witch" video was released.

I don't think that's correct. Castle was favored against Coons, but I'm almost certain that O'Donnell was always substantially behind in the polls (by double digits, in fact). If Castle had gotten the Republican nomination instead of O'Donnell it's very likely they would have won the seat. Too bad for them for nominating a nutter. 😛

This is correct, which made Spidey's original bet a particularly stupid one (and his current defiance about the whole thing even more embarrassing).

Seriously, intrade had reps at 90+% till morans put that bimbo thru the primary... after that:

Until now I was convinced that only tree huggers / libnuts vote for unelectable candidates in the primaries. Add teabaggers into the same heap... guess stupid runs deep on both extremes.

Also lulz at spideys bet and offers to double down at 2:1. Both of those offers can be arbed for zero risk profit by hedging yourself with intrade at the proper (read: market) odds.

So how much is the wife going to have to work to cover your little gambling debt here? I'm not sure if my tax dollars should go to someone like you.

Sound like a real winner there Vick.
 
Wait, wasn't spidey bitching in another thread about how he couldn't afford to buy a house right now??? Or something along those lines?? Haha.

You're an embarrassment, not only to Americans, but to humanity in general.

Your close mindedness is jaw dropping and astonishing. The world is not made of extremes, it's made of compromises.

Either in victory or defeat, this kid has shown himself to be nothing more than a piece of shit who will die alone and penniless. So at least he has that going for him.

I only ask we get confirmation that the bet has been paid.

I'm happy to report that spidey was a stand-up man of his word, as I fully thought he would be, and has paid me in full, with timeliness and grace.

I admit that I find most of spidey's social and political stances disturbing, alarming and even downright crazy, not to mention repugnant, and yet I think it's important to remember that in real life people are complex amalgamations of many different sides.

I pegged spidey as a man of his word. Despite the worst of his social and political opinions, imho, I saw his decent side. I trusted him from the get-go to pay this bet. I'm happy to say I was right.

And I'm even happier to report that the entire $500 will be going to the Socialist Vegetarian Muslim Terrorist Transgendered Alliance For Higher Taxes to fund the "spidey loves us" wing of their communal yurt.
 
You have to claim the winnings and you can't deduct political donations. You're doubly screwed!

And I get to deduct the loss!

A bet is a bet. But apparently Perk got hit with a fee because I've never used paypal before. I think I should tell him to eat it.

A bet between men should only require a handshake, and we had as much via PMs.
