I have to put in a good word for Mr. Mopdahl. I didn't agree with him all the time, but, from what I saw, he handled himself well. He got kind of a bum deal on those Trump bets. Trump may have won, but I still say the smart money was on Hillary.

Not at 25:1 it isn't
If I remember correctly, 25:1 came shortly after the grab me by the pussy tapes surfaced. No risk offering up those odds after that. Took him a couple of months to settle up though.

He was okay by me. He offered to let me out of my exile, after Mitt Romney lost to President Obama, and the conditions weren't really all that onerous. I knew I needed some time away, though. I'm just amazed at the amount of betting money that was on offer for the 2016 election. Unbelievable.

$5,000? Good Lord, but that's insane. It's only politics, and politicians are just not worth the sweat that one would have to generate to pay off such a bet. That was definitely a case of emotions overriding intellect, as I myself found out in 2012.

yeah, no way I would risk that kind of $ on those boobs but at 25:1, I was more than willing to part with a $100.

Emotion? More like arrogance. Actually, the winners owe you a beer.

What got into these folks last year during the election? I went Johnson/Weld for obvious reasons but I've really given up on hardcore (even softcore) politics these days.

I stand for freedom and the right to be left alone. If you're not hurting yourself or someone else, knock yourself out, in other words.

That's about it.

Johnson/Weld 2016.

You had your chance, you and your "binary choices," and you blew it. ;-)
