This election is all about the economy. Obama has failed, people see that and he will be a one-term president. On top of that, Benghazi-gate is finishing off Obama's chances as well. The cover up and lies are not helping his campaign!

I will take bets from anyone who thinks Romney will win the EC, we can escrow with whoever you want that you find trustworthy. Anything up to $1k.

Put your money where your mouth is, if you are so confident in Romney winning then I'm basically offering you free money.

What you fail to realize is that most people in this country don't know where Libya is, where Benghazi is, or either side of the controversy.

At best they see a he said this he said that.

Issues like this don't matter. It's issues that define character that do - swift boat veterans tarnished Kerry, not some obscure decision that may or may not have happened.

Conversely, Romney's 47% painted his character.

These are the issues that matter to your average American voter.

The Patriots have been overachievers the past two years. It doesn't have the talent to compensate for injuries, and it wins so much because it puts in 99% effort in the regular season and plays with terrific schemes to mask its deficiencies.

But in the playoffs a good team at 99% will not beat emotional, talented teams that play at 100%. It's what happened against the Giants in 2011 and the Ravens in 2012.

Anyone that wanted to bet on Romney would be wise to take odds with an offshore sportsbook instead of a straight up bet against you.

I think Obama will win. I dont think we will ever have a one term President. It takes too long to actually get anything done that you must give the President (no matter who it is) 8 years. In these days of hatred and Republicans actually stating thier agenda of making sure they are not partisan, there is no way to get anything done. I will also expect that the same thing will happen if we get a Republican President...the Dems will do everything in there power to block progress.

I would like to see everyone work together to get America back to where it was...after all, that is what politicians are sworn to do. I think they have forgotten that.

We went from 10 trillion in debt to 16 trillion in debt. The U-6 unemployment has been around 14.7% for the past 4 years. The GDP growth before Obama took office was at 3.3% and was called a recession by the media. GDP growth is now at 1.3% growth, what is that a depression? A budget has not been passed in 4 years. Obama has a worst record than Jimmy Carter and did Jimmy Carter get re-elected? NO!! I am calling a LANDSLIDE WIN for ROMNEY. Romney will win the Electoral College with 330 Electoral Votes!! Get used to saying President Romney!

those all have Obama as a favorite though, any sportsbook that is that inaccurate with their lines can't possibly be trustworthy
