Title: Gambling Site pays off Obama gamblers EARLY!!
Post by: GOP Congress on November 05, 2012, 04:39:47 PM
A gambling site has incredibly paid off people who have bet on Obama EARLY.

This may sound incredibly stupid....but it MAY be a PR thing!!

Imagine all those Obama bettors devastated when Obama loses (if they didn't get paid early). When Romney wins, this site is going to take a HUGE HIT on the Romney payoffs!

So unless they are making an estimated ~2 million PR stunt, this proves that gamblers know nothing about electoral processes in general.

If the transfers were done electronically, they can be undone just as quickly. :-)

I hope it was. Lot of pissed off Dems tomorrow night. The fact that they check their checking/savings and the amount of money they THOUGHT they won is gone is just going to be icing on the cake.  :lmao:

I wonder how many took their Obama winnings and bet them on Romney
