C'mon Michael, be real.
A. If she had conceded Fri. or Sat. the question still would have been No
2. In the speech today she said" today, as I suspend my campaign", and the scroll at the bottom said "Sen. Hillary Clinton suspending campaign and endorsing Obama".
How much proof do you need?

Well, if the Lebanon Daily Star says it it must be true.

Write Admin at contact page below.

It's wrong TOCM and you know it.

Re: the Spitzer rule, she hasn't said she is conceding, suspending or quitting and won't till Sat, which is what I was betting on, past the 6th as the question says.

Right triathematician, she has done none of those things and everyone on this comments list knows it! Email me when it gets reversed because if this ridiculous decision stands I'm Done.

I don't think the last question had the "shade of" wording so magenta and pink would fall under the spacious Red umbrella.

Very cute question(if it doesn't get flagged by a superuser for their opinion of correct odds like 90% of the last questions, oops wrong odds it should be 88%)

I went with no as well, I think there may be one and McCain would flounder so with the 3 meeting caveat it's questionable.

I went to Hillary.com as she requested and promised her 500$H to wait til Friday. TOCM did you bail before suspending? If not I'll start warming up the water for you.LOL.

I don't think hubdub has corners, just nice round padded rooms.

Bubbles and I have a little submarine, oops, did I type that?. Anyway I liked them both at the beginning but after Hilly's slide into Roveland I thought Obama was the classier, smarter, honester?, less corporater?, all around groovier candidate.

I did, its great. I just think there was never a better time than tonight to be gracefull and she lacked the grace to make an heroic exit. She could have been a hero tonight but she has her own agenda. We'll see.

Oy, I've got 5600$H on this one I've never bet that much. C'MON Hilly, hang in there til' midnight Thursday, PST of course.!!!

I'm all in, I have 184H$ cash left so I'll leave any more market moving to you. I'll warm the water.

I'm betting big against you on this one, I think she'll draw her perceived advantage out way past Thursday night. I don't think she'll be offered the veep spot either, there's been too much between them. We'll have to agree to disagree on this one.

The saga continues indeed. This question will be up to a million $H by the time it ends. Good one Markov.

"I'm not making any decisions tonight" sounds like she'll be awhile. Think she'll wait for a Veep offer before she goes away? Denver maybe?

She may never stop talking.

I hope you don't mean voided today because the question is still valid.

I was throwing Erik a bone.

Yes, great question and well presented. I think it's possible from one of her many home states.

One of these days it's gonna be 3 of a kind, darnit!

From past attacks in Yosemite and elsewhere, it seems they get these rogue bears right away.

This is a huge market isn't it? I've been in and out of it a few times.

Wellll Erik, not everything, but I could make you up a nice list, starting with allowing 9/11 and then covering up bunches of stuff, including how safe it was for the rescue workers. And ironman, I personally think there probably wasn't a conspiracy but just to shine some light on it why not have a real investigation? If there's nothing to hide, why hide everything?

Great background info, thanks.

You would think they would find it hard to ignore at least one of these crimes!

And hope Pelosi listens to Waxman and Conyers reason. In the meantime a couple of bucks at 6% is hard to pass up.

I agree, I had never heard of the other 2 and after a quick browse, I will stick with hubdub.

Take it from me Crudsy, being out to stud isn't all it's cracked up to be.

the

That was just a pun on tne superdelegates, haha.

As long as all the Superusers come out for Obama by June 5th, I'm all for them.

I think " How old will the next persons death reported in People mag. be" or something like that.

I think it will depend on Yale giving them the whole skeleton or just giving them the finger.

32 GRAND? indeed. I feel better about my paltry 150.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

You may get a little Spitzer in your soup.

I think Sex in the City will be bigger than you think.

Aren't the graphs on 2 choice, active questions pretty?

Fun question, put well, thanks.

I don't know Rob but I would vote for Natalie.

Man, you people question questions too much. It's the way it is because thats the way the writer wanted it. Either bet it or don't.

I'll bet on Dream Big on the strength of your taste.

You name your kid Lezzy what do you expect.

It is, and the book raises great questions too.

If you hadn't said blinding with a laser I would have bet a bundle.

I don't know what a partnership ceremony is but if that counts as a civil union of some kind I think they will.

George Bush would be perfect for Bilbo. I'll bet he's even got hairy toes.

I was wondering where my bunny went.

She won't miss the chance to raise some more $ to pay herself back the millions she borrowed from herself.

Cool.

I cast a vote for voiding but I'm really just entering this to see if it underlines.

good one michael on #29

Reagans famous joke about the scariest words, I'm sure you've heard them , I'm from the gov't and I'm here to help, is only a joke when the Republicans are in office. If you don't believe that gov't can work you won't be any good at it. You will just empty the Treasury into your corporate friends pockets through cronyism, creating wars then granting nobid contracts for war- profiteering, turning gov't agencies over to those that they are to be overseeing, Dismantling the middle class, creating a permanent cheap work force, creating a permanent neocon majority, . I would really like to see a single-payer health system. wouldn't it be better to have a very efficient 3% overhead program , like Medicare, than a 30-35% overhead system that rewands not healing people with 1.2 BILLION $ parachutes?

mork, your comment 12 tells me I read the question wrong, I didn't think you meant literal arrests, I thought you meant the forced PDA drops you mentioned in the comments. well good thing I didn't bet much.

Man, you people know how to complicate a question. ryan nowhere in the question does it say based on that count. It just says if the votes are counted and used towards delegates. That could be a split or whatever if not based on actual numbers and still be a yes. To complex for me though I'm out.

The moldy natto sounds especially tasty.

If they do they can stay at my house for a while.

Oh big deal i've been a size -1 for years.

Just curious, why ask if it will be up in May and really mean Oct?

Great question, I don't know what nattos are but I'm giggling already.

Not to things that make the rich richer.
http://www.blogmaverick.com/2007/12/11/warren-buffett-taxes-and-the-presidency/
http://www.usatoday.com/money/companies/management/2008-04-09-ceo-pay_N.htm
Now isn't that just silly?

Erik, I would like to know what kind of company you keep if you think $30,000 a year is poor. You must hang out with Buffett who says he pays 17.7 tax rate while his receptionist pays 30%. I don't think many people object to paying taxes (when they aren't squandered on wars for corporate profit) as long as it is equitable. To think that someone is sitting by their pool waiting for checks "earned" on money their grandparents made is paying 15% tax While I pay 30% on my salary I work my butt of for is frustrating. Mark Cuban has an interesting perspective . http://www.blogmaverick.com/2007/12/11/warren-buffett-taxes-and-the-presidency/
I don't object to paying my fair share at all, as long as it goes toward schools, roads, helping the needy, the commons, things we all share as fellow Americans. Taxes should go to things that help us all.

It's especially true in alot of small towns where the jobs have disappeared overseas and the only work laid-off 50 year olds can get is selling the aforementioned Big Gulps and pizzas.
chatarra, the neocons are the ones who did the hijacking, I have alot of respect for traditional Republican values but they are all but gone now. AuH2o must be turning over in his grave. I just sound like a lefty because the middle has gone so far right anything rational sounds left. I consider myself a radical centrist.

ICU2???

No moderator? Questions from real people? Sounds like the good ol' days of League of Women Voters, before networks took over.

Cuz George screwed it all up. The war went great ( that was the first few weeks), the occupation has been a disaster.

Oh Erik, tell me you're not a trickle down guy, that didn't work for Reagan and it's working even less now. By corps writing laws I mean energy companies writing energy policy (Hey George, I know let's invade Iraq and we'll make them give us all the oil we need), http://www.csmonitor.com/2007/0518/p01s01-usfp.html , big pharma writing our health and drug safety policies, http://www.naturalnews.com/022045.html , mining giants writing mine safety policy, http://www.sunlightfoundation.com/node/24 , and on,on,on.Cronyism is bad gov't and Big Business writes bad law that helps no one but Big Business. What we have now is not successful capitalism, it is merely unrestrained greed that has resulted in 9 trillion in debt, much to China, http://zfacts.com/p/461.html , an out of control situation in the mideast we should never have started, trade defecits all over the place, millions of poor going through the eye of a needle to benefit the top 1% of Americans who never will.

Things have changed in the last 2 years Erik, they even changed today with the Rove subpoena, seems to me the Dems are growing a pair. SFN, I like that, will have opposition next time too and that may make her reconsider.

I agree with much of that, however I have to go to work so I'll continue later, I am a slow typist, need more time than I have, have a great day.

I must be missing something, can there be a tie with 15 games?

I think that Keith has( like me) Obsessive Lie Hatred and this administrations demonstrable lies have gone unapposed, and aided by corporate media, too long. Erik, capitalism is great as long as it benefits the country as well, but when it is unrestrained and benefitting a few to the great harm of the many it is time to take a look at who is writing the laws. I'm tired of having corporations write the laws governing themselves. Isn't that stupid?Take a look around and see where it's gotten us in 7 short years, well OK Clinton did some too. Education is in the crapper, Soldiers overseas aren't getting supplies, Vets at home are underfunded and health needs ignored( can you believe Mccain & Bush are against the new GI Bill?) Medicare is just Bizzare, Prescription drugs are unreal, Millions uninsured, Millions in or sinking into poverty, foreclosure mess, Pollution rampant, and a bunch of other crap, all because of GREED. I mean does anyone really need a 1.2 BILLION $ parachute?

Man, you people on the east coast really have an edge.

Unexpected situation, you could suspend and rewrite, or just amend. I vote for amend.

1."If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State. 2.”The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over” Sounds like the last 7 years to me. I just hope the neocons didn't come across this one. 3.“If the day should ever come when we [the Nazis] must go, if some day we are compelled to leave the scene of history, we will slam the door so hard that the universe will shake and mankind will stand back in stupefaction..”

mork I thought that was Goebbels. He also had some good quotes about the news media that the neocons have really taken to heart.

WOW,I have to find a picture. Where does she even have room for 9 breasts?

I'm hoping that slacker Congress is saving impeachment for about October. If under impeachment I think a Pres. loses his pardon power. I hope they have the cojones.

Sounds dirty. I like it.

I'm betting this one hoping the meaning of the word "charged" means legally, as in charged with assault or whatev, and not just fired or suspended or stuff. And stuff.

I'm in Phx too, This is a very odd question. No even. No I mean odd. Even.

Well, valorn, this one has interpretations too. Most hospitals make you go to your car in a wheelchair even if you feel as strong as Arnold.

The Senate is a chamber of the Capitol bldg., but the question doesn't really say Senate building, just Senate, implying Senate Chamber, like a ventricle, pumping dubious laws all about the land.

So I guess if they go back to the orig. question I'll be asking for a void.

It's funny corky, I passed on this question at first and bet on it after the rewrite! It is a very different meaning.

I can't believe they named it after that horse.

I don't think they heard you, maybe the contact tab below?

As long as Olberman speaks " truth to power " his ratings should rise. The only way to get real (non-corporate) TV news in the US is Keith or Comedy Central. Oh for the days before the telecom... act. Another strike against the Clintons, almost as corporate as the neocons.

Is this for Mon. the 19th or Tues. the 20th?

It still reads flagged as of today, who knows.

I don't know, even 1 in 2008 would be a yes, "any" is a big word here.

You do mean the Democratic party do you not Erik?

Right edogg and robmar, This shouldn't be settled until the last male contestant is voted off.

Wow I'm hearing people on the radio wondering if the Junta refusal of aid is to cover up some nefarious murder activity

males

Say what, there are still 2 ales left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess I had this wrong, r to l would include cents, the odds of a straight would go down alot.

I think it is the restaurant at the end of the universe.

Especially with McCain trading fact for fiction on a daily basis.

If you had the stress of running for president going on I hope you would forgive yourself a numerical faux pas once in a while.

The real question is" are any contributions given to Clinton now going to pay off Hillary's debt to herself?"

If she's really that young I'll be pissed if he's not convicted!

I think Amy is turning over a new Leaf, coca of course. Does she have to make it up the catwalk too or just down?

I think your analysis is right on and I hope the Hubdub Powersthatbe don't over ride your odds just because they think they know better.

Hmm McCain = corporate Socialism, not a tough call at all.

I figured, just kidding.

I'm betting a big yes.

The question is perfect. This is done all the time, it just doesn't usually hit the press.

Does resign mean make him quit against his will?

Most lists of tropical countries do list Mali, which is important considering their usual Olympic performance.This list has countries with all or part in the tropics.http://www.nhm.ac.uk/hosted_sites/bbstbg/tropctry.htm

I thought Sex in the City will be big, do you think it could knock Indy out of 1st place for a weekend?

http://www.komando.com/videos/5-9.asp . Great Jackie Chan fan tribute.

I had to put some $h on this just to track the story. Great question.

I just hope we don't send anyone from FEMA.

Makes a great soup.

Georgia wins. Says something about Georgia.

http://news.aol.com/?feature=20080506205709990001

Of course it will open up, why wouldn't it, it's not a holiday or anything.

It looks like George Bush to me.

He'll just buy a new set.

They already do, just search Spitzer.

I think not, although she has been giving Mary Cheney the eye.

Great link jenniandboys, thank you.

I'm probably too late to get this answered but I just noticed the question. I personally have all questions public just because I don't care who sees them but is there some advantage to not having any public like crudsy or is he/she just shy.

This is devious, really the question is who wins LA vs Oakland.

Buy your Forever stamps now!

I think this will depend most on gas prices. Will they be substantially higher by then?

I'm sure Bush's NSA has been using something like this through the phone companies for 7 years now.

I read it was a bath and she kept her scuba suit on so she's OK.

Maybe, for balance, this linque should be included too. http://www.votefortheworst.com/

Paparazzi don't really care about legal and I think there may be a different set of rules in Hollywierd we are not privy to. And I mean the American meaning of privy.

Virtually? How about completely. She should go bye-bye!

This will be yes if she poses "in her pants" ??? What does that mean?

Latest is 82-73 with 3 to be awarded, lets not jump the gun.

OK OK We thought you people still wanted to know even more about Rev. Wright, that elitist Obama calling people screwed by Bush bitter, and how can we have a pres. that doesn't wear a flag pin. How were we supposed to know you wanted questions about the economy, the disaster of an occupation in Iraq, education, health care, shrinking veteran benefits, 5 time stop lossed soldiers, mercenaries, War profiteers, The Constitution, torture, wire-tapping, the new Ben & Jerry's flavor (Impeachmint), etc.. We really thought America wanted to spend 50 minutes talking about flag pins.
Sorry,
George and Chucky

My turn to kvech.

My problem with many of these Tech. questions, although they are great questions that I enjoy very much, is they tie up my H$ forever for relatively little gain. So There.

Maybe after St. Patricks day or New Years Eve.

I've got to bet against this one, that's alot of units sold in one year.

It seemed to be a double-edged offer. http://www.tmcnet.com/usubmit/2008/04/19/3396714.htm

As a practicing and unrepentant Catholic, I can take a joke. Maher slams everyone who deserves it. I also agree about the name calling of those classic liberals like Hannitty, Rush, and Michael Wiener, I mean Savage. Not to mention Coulter(who is losing it fast) and Bill Kristol. Real conservatives A la AuH2O and the magnificent Bill Buckley are rolling in their graves.

(yawn) Not now I'm watching TV>

Well, I'm betting on it hoping an apology about the debate is enough because I think that's coming.

I'll have to agree with triathematician, Worded as it is, the apology would have to contain those exact phrases. I think they might apologize but it is a strech to think they will use those exact words.

Is that Chelsea Clinton?, Maybe, she looks very athletic.

Even small wars are major if there is loss of life.

Methinks they are eating their words all the time.

I painted my finger purple after the primary.

I think she will be gone after Penn too. Gov. Dean is calling the SUPERdelagates to declare now, Obama is catching up in the polls, Billary is not going to get her convincing win in Pa.

Then you will be mrmintbluejello.

The war was won in the first couple of weeks, but the occupation hasn't gone so well.

If RCP got Survey USA out of there it would be a huge change. Where the heck do they get their respondents, Wellesley?

I'm in Phx too fingers, well Glendale.

The wheels of the Justice Dept. move very slowly, if at all, but I guess a couple of months should be enough. How about June 30?

Just wondering pics4d, why did Mensa kick you out?

I agree, they may put out an album but "all new material" will be hard to call. What if they remake "Feelings"?

And as with Nixon "He is not a crook"

Great question, I just hope he doesn't go on Rush or Hannitty and Combs.

By the time I finish this gin and juice he'll have his visa (with my mind on my money and my money on my mind)

OK, I'm a Phoenix fan, but the Suns at 30%, I'm outta here

Oops, Chris is Howie's boy.

Man, someone really likes Howie's boy.

Don't tell Bush that, he doesn't know.

I'd like to bet on this but with no suspend date, if he doesn't get punished it will never end.

I think you would have to be a Scottophile.

Great question searcher, makes me wish I had more time for social concience activities.

I like the question but I thought it was more interesting when it was faith.

I like the question but I thought it was more interesting when it was faith.

Lorne Michaels must have something better to do than sit in that booth.

WooHoo Aussie boy goes

Really, great question.

I don't know about the "announcement will be sufficient" , what if they have to put him in a care home in the interim? JK

What?

Wow, Michael Johns, a slaughter

I clothespin a playing card to my spokes, they seem to hear that.

I'm not sure I understand the second season stuff, could you explain?

I think you spelled Amber wrong, or her parents did.

Oh, my heart, we can only hope.

He might ask, "who put this hair on my Coke can?"

good idea, I had some H$ down and wondered if they canceled in the middle it could lose.

That reminds me, I've been meaning to make some questions about Curling, kind of a specialty of mine.

je vous en prie monsieur fax.

Oh, ye people of little faith, I guess you have to live in Phoenix to know what a cakewalk it's going to be for the Suns. We have shaQue now ya' know.

I wish Billary would drop out so the press could start talking about what a womanizer McCain was after his 1st wife was in a disfiguring accident and he ended up meeting cute, rich Cindy in Hawaii for a fling before they got married. Oh, wait, he's a neocon so the corporate press will never bring that up.

Way to stick to your guns (so to speak) d_t_o I think your question was very well put and I think we will know when it all falls apart. The headlines will read "Bush says surge a great success".

I think I heard a What, Love Horton

Hellooooo, Guam.

There's a bill in front of Congress about wiping out the rainforests that is preventing her. And snipers, and she's busy with peace in Ireland.

The Admin. is trying as hard as they can to stuff their fingers in the dyke until the Democrats take the White House, if the econ. falls apart then they can blame the Dems.

Great question, I'd put money on Obama overtaking McCain in the next 2 days, very close.

We've still got a month on this one bluejello, maybe she'll come to her senses after Penn.

You guys keep forgetting about Guam.

If he doesn't kick butt in Guam i'd be surprised.

Wow, you're basically asking if the Dems in Fla., and(next question) Mich., are pissed enough to let McCain win!!! A genius question.

I'm glad I didn't find a painting that weighed 3 million pounds. It would certainly put me in a pence ive mood though.

I think it will be Roman Catholic.

I must be missing something, I have 2 of the same bets but the "Currently Worth" figures are based on 2 different percentages. Why is that?

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/polls/ Does this help at all?

Oh, too bad I thought it was a cute little question.

I don't know what extened means but I'n voting no.

I think the appeal is to do a little research and try to narrow the odds a little whilst streching yer brain. It also gives you a chance to vicariously visit far reaches of the globe.

It would certainly be a public relations coup for China before the Olympics.

Pretty ambiguous. Do you mean from today, or Jan 1, in the history of the U.S.

I hope " Run Fat Boy Run" doesn't overtake it.

There really doesn't look like much competition for a while, I'm going more on 3 weeks.

Good question, I figured the Anniversary songs were included.

OK lets all adjourn to the Hubpub

I think binary punk is leading up to a point, there are many questions that have an element of the macabre in them, where do you draw the line. Let free speech carry the day.

It's St Patrick's day, all the Hubdub guys are Scottish. They are in the Hubpub!

That shouldn't matter to the question, it is still a valid question.

On this site 'Spitzering' could become a verb.

Hopefully his parole officer will let him travel to Washington.

Ryan, this question suspends on Sun., does that mean any Congress types have to be implicated by then or just that the betting stops then. Thanks

I can't see someone paying her "multi", maybe a million .2 or so.

Wow, never heard of any of them.

Supposed to release April 29

I have to side with Scott on this one, He resigned today.

Maybe post-Vitter, oh, wait, he's still in office. Shouldn't someone ask him to resign?

Oops, got my days confused, never mind.

Wow, all those Eze people who bailed got off very Eze indeed!

Odds are going down! Are wagers after 5:00 PST going to be void?

I think all questions pertaining to sleazy celebrities should be banned because they are a bad influence, and sleazy politicians, and sports where people could be injured or die, or anything else that is distasteful to me. Oh what the heck, maybe I just won't vote on subjects I don't like!

I would certainly consider Paul's motives purer than Nader's which are muddled and rooted in ego.

Hopefully the No one Drops Out option will be decided at the Convention at the latest.

I'm sure some Republican candidate will be elected to some office somewhere.

Easily the most symetrical History graph I've seen

I see 4 for LL and 3 for EM! http://razzies.com/history/07Winners.asp

how can you find how many current members there are?

Otherwise it would read 33-35, 35-40, etc.

That's what got me to bet, then it would be none of the above

I have to believe that most of us took " blow up " as disintegrate or be blown up. I always thought that armed intervention was a possibillity.

Me too, although I can't understand why I got 79H for 100H wagered at 56.50% I think that was figured wrong, but I couldn.t wait any longer for it to correct. I'll just have to weigh if the questions are too restrictive when they seem obvious at first glance.

About time to settle this one?

The MSNBC I was watching gave Obama the most delagates on Super Tuesday!!!
