Sad but true... but there are still problems for non-gamblers in the final two years of the Obama administration.
The first problem is that fewer and fewer folks will take the "Won't Capitulate" side of the bet even with odds. It's getting to be like trying to find a 'counter-party' for a bet that the sky is blue on a clear day.
The second problem is that the window of time allowed to make your bet before Obama capitulates grows shorter and shorter. In the case of the healthcare capitulation Obama argued for a public option long after he had sold out on it. (And of course, the gambling community was never even allowed to take bets on single-payer, because those folks got arrested for trusting in Obama's promise that 'everybody will get a seat at the table'.
How soon before 'deficit reduction' comes up? And how long before Obama capitulates sells out on that? I'm really uncertain that the comming Social Security/Medicare cuts can count as a 'capitulation' when Obama forms the Catfood Commission himself.
Hey, bets anyone?!?!
