When in doubt...check Intrade.
They're pretty much money.

Healthcare at 80% chance of passing.

It was at 77 a couple hours ago.

1. I need for it to be at 99.99%
Till then, I'm faxing to all of this congresscritters that say they are Dem and are still saying no, or Don't know.

3. That won't come until they start to vote
Because Intraders know they wouldn't be voting if they didn't have it.

5. Thank you..you got Michael Arcuri on
that list? Somebody from Utica(where Arcuri holds an office) said there were ads still going..asking him to vote YES..even though he's already said NO.

There's lot of activists around here working on him, still.

6. Frenchie, I always say
"although I'm not a constituent, I am prepared to contribute to Representative Joe Blow's challenger during the next campaign if Representative Blow votes against this Bill"

I keep it short and sweet and address what's important to them -- $$$

I figure they don't care about anything else, so why try any other tactic?

Just wanted to share what I consider my brilliant approach! :7 :hi:

2. It has fluctuated today between 77 and 87
Word is that a lot of Washington insiders are placing bets on Intrade.

7. I've been watching intrade for weeks. We are up in the same neighborhood as Tiger Woods

was when it was pretty darn obvious that he'd be playing in the Masters'. His numbers didn't go far above 83 until after news broke that he said he'd be playing.
