GOP could pull 7 of the 9 Toss Ups and possibly 2 of the leans Dem. GOP House/Senate, with Obama as POTUS.....4 years of gridlock (not counting 2014 midterms). Over the last 30 yrs. or so, this type of arrangement bodes well for the economy (Clinton/Reagan). Obviously not my ideal scenario (plus I'm out $100 bucks), but could happen.

You losing $100 is a forgone conclusion, in fact, I am so confident that I am willing to bet in 12thMan's place and put another 100 in the pot.

Brown isn't winning MA and neither is McCaskill in MO. Nelson is an old dog with cat like lives, Tester is done for and Allen Macaca isn't going to win VA... ultimately Dems need 3 seats to maintain control which really doesn't mean much these days as Republicans have indiscriminately utilized the filibuster to instituting gridlock the last 3.5 years.

Bottom line, your money is going to get spent with or without a Federal Budget and you need to get these stupid Republican talking points out of your head and assume the fetal position or just grab your ankles, it will all go a lot smoother that way.

If 12th wants to step up, he needs to put his own skin-in-the-game. If you're up for doubling down, I'm good for $ 200 total. I'll await your response.

As far as fetal positions and such, that will never happen, but I'll keep your comments in mind on Nov. 7th...after Romney has won.

...and absolutely nothing changes one bit. If anything, it gets worse.

Who am I to deny you the right to lose money. We are on for an addition $100...winner takes home $200.
