CARPE DIEM: Intrade: The Rise of Gingrich and the Fall of Perry

Saturday, November 12, 2011

Current Intrade odds: 2.4% for Perry (down from above 20% in early October) and 12.8% for Gingrich (up from 1.2% in early October).

Could it be that the right wing of the Republican party has killed the proverbial golden goose of actual viable candidates ?

or do folks REALLY believe that folks like Gingrich and Perry could beat the "weak" Obama?

batter up

That should be "50-cent" words.
