Obama To Win The Election (based on the fact that the Chinese have not bothered to translate McCain's writings)

Last week, three books about Barack Obama were published in China BUT no books by John McCain were available; apparently his writings have yet to be translated into Chinese.

Bookies free publicity

Rycharde Manne - Fri, 2008-17-10 6:24 pm
Had never heard of bookies paying early, but reading the article looks like these irish bookies like to pay out as a publicity stunt. Seems to work, but they will lose a lot (again) if Obama loses. Also as the odds seem to be 1-2 it isn't worth those "winners" hedging their bets for a McCain win. Could be smart, could be dumb. Money for your Thoughts - join now OWO-BV

The Race Is Over - Obama Victory Officially Announced In Ireland

coelacanth6 - Fri, 2008-17-10 6:06 pm
Check This Out - http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27236818/ According to Ireland's biggest gambling bookmaker, Paddy Power PLC, the race is over and Obama has won. Paddy Power says it is so sure Barack Obama will win the U.S. presidential election next month that it paid off Thursday on all bets it had taken backing the Democratic candidate. It said it shelled out more than 1 million euros, about $1.35 million.

Lost in translation

I'm sure they "could," but you might not like the way it turns out!

I wonder if they could

May not be a good thing for Obama

Considering how Chinese publishers have butchered things like the Harry Potter books with faulty translations, I'd be wary if I was Obama. I hope his staff has had someone check the Chinese versions to make sure they're accurate!
