It's $500. If Obama wins I get paid, if Romney wins he SS33 gets paid.

LOOOL...yeah, straight up. I almost feel bad for SS33. He's going to be doubly pissed.

At $100 the bet was not that bad but at $500 its not a good bet on either side. I'd bet $500 on the skins to win a game before I'd bet on either one of these guys.

It will be a good bet for the winner...It's strictly business for me and I'm up.

I hope you didn't make any bets based on the map you posted.

I guess I can't talk about stupid bets I have a running bet with a buddy thats $100 per season that either Dallas or Skins sweep the series. I think I have won once in the past 10 yrs and he has won like 5 times. The bet was $50 per game but its a wash if they split so thats how we came up with the bet.

WASHINGTON — For his first annual budget next week, President Obama has banned four accounting gimmicks that President George W. Bush used to make deficit projections look smaller. The price of more honest bookkeeping: A budget that is $2.7 trillion deeper in the red over the next decade than it would otherwise appear, according to administration officials.

The latest on President Obama, the new administration and other news from Washington and around the nation. Join the discussion.

The new accounting involves spending on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Medicare reimbursements to physicians and the cost of disaster responses.

But the biggest adjustment will deal with revenues from the alternative minimum tax, a parallel tax system enacted in 1969 to prevent the wealthy from using tax shelters to avoid paying any income tax.

I think he was being funny bro. Romney claimed credit for the Patriots super bowls and the Red Sox championships. He too was being funny.

90K lead in Ohio for Obama with early results.

Something wierd just happened.

I am 99% sure that it was a 90k lead for Romney, not Obama. The comments seemed to reinforce that too, but i thought i was mistaken based off of your comment.

Now the article is removed. Clicked on it. Saw Romeny ahead by 90k. Clicked back here to check your comment again. Clicked back and it was gone.

A Cincinnati.com front-page link to a chart with dummy data, created as a design template for election results, was inadvertently posted early Tuesday morning.

It purported to show early voting totals in Ohio counties. However, no votes have been counted yet – by law counting doesn't start until the polls close.

Cincinnati.com regrets the error.

Probably not a good idea to go with electronic voting....lol
