Eh, I doubt there's as much money on those. And people seem to be in the mood to despise the senate and vote for the incumbents... which makes this pretty predictable, actually. Hm.

I can say with certainty that Bachmann isn't going to survive her next election.

[penguinofhonor]

Wait, she survived the last one?

House majority/breakdowns tend to have decent markets from what I remember of '10 and '12. Senate to a much lesser degree and IIRC only on the American dominated markets that got heavily skewed when the media took notice, then all their US customers banned for legal reasons. Some individual races might get you good odds if you can find a bookmaker willing to take the bet, but that's rare and you don't often get markets offered on such a small scale.

I can say with certainty that Bachmann isn't going to survive her next election.

If she for whatever reason runs against Franken, no chance. If she stays where she is... I wish I had your certainty.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

She just barely scraped by in one of the most conservative regions of America. She won't be able to pull it off twice.

[Sheb]

With the Presidential elections far away, people might forget how crazy she is.

WTF did we just timewarp back to early 2005 or something?

It's not surprising when you look at this chart:

The problem with automatically looking at stock prices for the health of your economy, is that excessive inflation will also drive up stock prices. Or it could be a bubble isolated to the stock market if other investment avenues are looking relatively poor.

Day by day, the usurper gets closer and closer to replacing the Bill of Rights with the whim of jackbooted UN thugs. I highly recommend you all look into shelters and gold and firearm stashes for the FEMA coup coming this summer. By the time the black helicopters start flying, it will already be too late.

It's drones now. Bombing Cafes in Austin if we are to believe Mr. Paul.
