One Day To Go Predictions Thread
The bookies in the home office have posted the latest over/under betting lines.
US Congress:
Hartley Nagle: 49%
Northington: 35%
Miller: 25%
Governor Primary Dem:
Markell: 51%
Carney: 50%
Governor Primary Republican:
Protack: 52%
Lee: 48%
Insurance Commissioner Dem Primary:
Reed: 47%
Weldin Stewart: 44%
Savage: 25%
(Totals at times exceed 100% because bets are being placed on how well the candidate will perform (over or under) the given betting line)
KHN Under
JN Over
Miller Under
Markell/Carney Sucker bet (I pass)
Protack Under
Lee Over
GReed Over
W-S Under
Savage Under
YMMV
Let me add two post-primary/general election predictions equally sane as the GOP Governor primary one above :
Markell: 35%
Protack: 65%
Carney: 28%
Protack: 72%
KHN Under
JN Over
Mike Miller Under
Markell Over
Carney Under
Protack way under
Lee Over
Reed under
Nutjob under
Savage under
KHN Under
Northington Over
Miller About Right
Carney Over
Markell Under (El Somnambulo hopes he’s wrong)
Protack Way Under (these bookies would be out of business fast)
Lee Over
Reed Over
Stewart and Savage Both Under
I’d like to bet my testicles on the Republican Governor line as stated above. Both of them. I’ll remove them with rusty pruning shears and send them to you.
Go Protack!
C’mon, LG. What are you going to do with a pair of (enormous) testicles?
I just wanted to ask if anyone here or on the other blogs have caught Jack Markell’s latest video interview. I edited and published it live less than 48-hours ago and has had over 40,000 viewers so far.
John Carney and/or his group never responded to us so Jack had the camera crews (and coverage) all to himself.
I would like to hear from others about my interview with Jack and, if any of you think it will make a difference in the outcome (and did I do a good job?)
Thanks and my best to all,

Are Protack’s multiple personalities all separately registered to vote? If so, I’ll take the over.
I’ll hang them from my hitch.
El Somnambulo has trouble counting, but the US Congress race adds up to 109%, 1 percent less than The Beast Who Slumbers gives in the ring when he’s up against the nefarious Teletubbymundo.
And the insurance commish #’s look a little squirelly too.
Oh, the #’s reflect the bets being made, eh? Well, some smart guy is gonna make mucho dinero betting the ‘middle’.
protack will win with the 4 board members of IPOD supporters…what a joke!
today, Robert Brown puts out a Press Release stating the republican/democrat primary should be postponed as a rigged election….he forgets he just rigged the IPOD with 4 board members, and through all their party members under the bus! Insanity plus!
Liz, you can try to post again. Nancy seems to be working now.
US Congress:
Hartley Nagle: under
Northington: over
Miller: over
Governor Primary Dem:
Markell: under (sorry)
Carney: over (sorry)
Governor Primary Republican:
Protack: under
Lee: over
Insurance Commissioner Dem Primary:
Reed: over
Weldin Stewart: under
Savage: under
FWIW, El Somnambulo would set the Protack number at 23%. A good number should get equal action on both the over and the under.
US Congress:
Hartley Nagle: under
Northington: over
Miller: under
Governor Primary Dem:
Markell: over
Carney: under
Governor Primary Republican:
Protack: under
Lee: over
Insurance Commissioner Dem Primary: (Can I say I hate this race?)
Reed: over
Weldin Stewart: under
Savage: under
I firmly believe that Protack won’t get to 52% of his immediate family, much less his RD, ED, county, or state.
Well. It seems the that the sense is that our home office bookies got the Protack vote share prognistication wrong.
Wednesday I’ll compare these to Ron Williams and see if we need to find new odds makers.
cassandra….do you hate that race because tom savage and karen stewart are filing for the general as 3rd party candidates? do they want someone in office to do a good job or do they hate gene reed?
Gene Reed is a slimy guy. The old guard dems and the insurance companies are his backers. Who wants that? Brady upsets Reed in the general with KWS and CRAZY old Tom Savage on the ballot.
Congressional is irrelevant, the Dems don’t support any of these candidates and are going to prop up Coons in 2010 to keep their incestuous power structure in place. The 60s are long gone, libs. Get a clue. No one in their right mind is voting for a guy with a pony tail. Geez. Grow up. Northington is a zero. Miller is a thug. Nagle could make it interesting on election night and a heavy female turnout.
But the best laugh is your numbers on Prozack after Beth Miller destroyed that lying thug in the paper last week. He’ll be lucky to get to 35%
Markell upsets the old guard and the unions tomorrow. That will make it all worth it. We’ll be a better state and a better party for it, tho some are going to lose their power. It can’t happen soon enough.
“Gene Reed is a slimy guy.”
How many times have you talked to Gene Reed? Seriously. What is John Brady going to do for you? Does it not faze you that Gene has 23 years experience fighting against insurance companies on YOUR BEHALF? I guess that is slimy…
KHN under
Northington over
Miller under
Lee over
Protack under
Markell over
Carney under
Reed under
KWS over
Savage under
Is there a prize?
Gene Reed never met a lobbyist he didnt like. Insurance Commissioner position is ripe for graft. During the candidates debate, graft was exposed. Of course Tom Savage was upset, exposing graft in your own party is difficult.
Savage challenged Reed and his out of state donors, special interst groups, and his relationship with the State Chamber of Commerce.
Tom Savage is a guy who spent 15 years driving up from Sussex daily to Leg Hall. He campaigned for a insurance plan for police and fire. (They were left out of state/city/county benefit plans).
Tom is 70 years old, but he knows exactly where the graft is, and will rid that office of it. Tom Savage understands the economics of health care in Delaware and he knows “universal” health care is the only position from a taxpayer/citizen point of view.
He is a courageous man, supports real universal health care as does Jack Markell. They have different positions on how to get there.
SB 177 single payer health care is supported by 28 statewide organizations, 18 Legislators, and Medical Society! SB 177 has three independent state studies, nationally peer reviewed. SB177 is the only Health Care Plan of all the candidates, under that much scrutiny! Tom Savage has facts on his side.
But on this Blog he is dishonored, ridiculed by you fence sitters. Great americans?
Call It, I hate that race because no one of the Matt Denn caliber is running.
And I’ve had a chance to meet Gene Reed at a few events and he seems to be a personable and gracious guy. I just wish he had lived with Denn’s fundraising rules.
I’d like to bet my testicles on the Republican Governor line as stated above. Both of them. I’ll remove them with rusty pruning shears and send them to you.

My hitch will feel so naked…
