Posted on December 31, 2006 by Chris F. Masse

1. He smokes. [Link will come alive next week.]

2. His middle name is “Hussein“.

3. His contract is stuck at 11% —and hasn’t moved much since fanboy Lance Fortnow endorsed him in early November.

    Fortnow said he was the next president (that’s not an endorsement) on Nov 5, when the 2008.PRES.OBAMA traded at about 7.

    The far more liquid 2008DEM.NOM.OBAMA has climbed more or less steadily from about 12 on Nov 5 to 21 now.

    So what are you smoking?

    (I favor Richardson, alas, considered a nonentity by traders, but I’m betting on that vile creep Edwards and hoping I lose.)

    Richardson lied on his resume. He said he belonged to a famous basketball team; a lie, at least for the time period he gave.
