The chart means that shares of “Hillary Clinton To Democratic Win Nomination” that pay $1.00 if she wins are now selling for around 16 and a half cents. (FWIW in Iowa Electronic Futures Market the same contract is selling for 17 and a half cents.)

I wish I could open a futures market on this site for Delaware politics….

Oh God. Did Jason just say he wants to do a Cohen-esque Blue & Gold?

When Jason controls Delaware Politics like Hedda Hopper controlled Hollywood in the 1940s with her gossip column, will he don Celia attire like Norman in “Psycho”?

Ha, ha, ha, ha Dis. I’ve got this amazing mental image — sorry Jason.

Or Jason standing over the pit in his cellar holding his pet poodle, starving the captive Celia so he can make a Celia-skin suit, saying, “Now it washes itself!”
