Gamblers, Bettors, Bookies : Barack Obama to be re-elected President in 2012 : bet $51.1 to win $100 - Republican Presidential Nominee in 2012 : Rick Perry : $36.9, Mitt Romney : $29.7, Marco Rubio to be Republican VP nominee in 2012 : $30.0

.
This is data from INTRADE.COM ( the most important betting house ). Obama is bouncing up from a low.  Michele Bachmann is ignored by bettors and gamblers.

I love predictions by people that are risking their money. - They usually are more accurate than polls. Because Gamblers, Bettors and Bookies know more about horses or football teams than the man in the street.
