Default Paddy Power is already paying off Obama bets as winners

If you bet on Obama with them, you can collect your winnings now. No sense waiting for pesky results to come back tonight.

I was able to meet the one and only Paddy Power, of Paddy Power, in Ireland.

He told a funny (not to him, though) story of offering a punt on who shot Mr Burns. Forgetting that the episodes come on a week earlier in the USA than in Ireland, some college kid made $35 grand off a "Maggie" bet.

So we'll see... but Paddy is probably right.

Romeny money has come in offshore in the last half hour.

He's back down to just 3.2-to-1

You can make 27 cents on the dollar betting Obama still. Paddy Power is taking a risk paying all that money off early.

Completely meaningless. A stupid Euro tosser trying to manipulate the vote by making it appear he's payin out when knowing god-damned well he'll take the money back and actually pay out very little, if at all.

Psychological warfare for degenerate, gullible douchebags.
