thanks Sandman - one of ya have a set, to walk the talk..

If it's a clear winer Nov 3 we can do the bet until Jan1. Just think they'll drag the results out, with all the voting fraud cries and all, regardless of who wins, in which case we'll have to wait until the courts decide a winner for our 60 day band to start

I was truly hoping Nash would take the bet, I think it'd been therapeutic for him - either way it ends up :)

How about the loser has to stop wailing like my 4 year old niece when she can't watch Sponge Bob for 60 days?

Right now...  Bush is much stronger in the elctorial than kerrie.  He is stronger than he was with gore in 2000 and..  the way the electorial votes are distributed this time gives Bush about 11 "freebies"...   Bush would win by 285 votes or so... no popular vote poll puts kerrie ahead at this time... most show him down from 1-4% points.

Everyone who is gonna be influenced one way or the other by moore or stern or CBS has allready seen everything they have to offer.    F 9/11 could be showing in the polling booths and it wouldn't change things at this point

kerrie could win tho... it is close enough for that to happen.  Probly the most important things will be the 30 sec attack adds that will be running and any new "documentaries" or stories that come out late and can't be disproven before the election.

The real biggest chance kerrie has tho is the huge war chest he is piling up for the anticipated "recounts" in the hope that he can change the outcome of the voting.

clear, fair and square win by either candidate would be immensly preferable to this.

oh, and eagler...you realize that you now have to win two bets in order to win instead of one?   if you lose either then..... you lose the whole thing

I hope Bush wins the popular vote.  A few weeks w/out MT's leftist whacko blathering will be refreshing.

I was really looking forward to a little wound salt rubbing Eagler, don't run 'em all off the board.
Here we put salt on Margaritas, not sidewalks.
