1. Love your signs.

I can't believe we might actually take the senate!

4. Thanks...

These are the Senate campaigns we've put money into. All are Republican seats where the Dems are leading.

2. I Forgot About That Poll...They Weren't Too Far Off In 2000

Thanks for the refresher...I'm keeping my money on ice while the status of this election's on hold. 4th quarter is gonna be a crusher. Let's hope it's knowing this regime will be gone soon.

BTW...great stuff about Salazar on CNN just now!!!

6. Can these actually be traded?

I thought about buying a whole bunch of Bush when it was at 60 (meaning it pays back 100 if Bush wins) just so I could go on a long vacation and recover with lots of Margaritas should Bush wins, and if Kerry wins, I won't miss the money at all!
