Gamblers and Bettors : The Shares of Sonia Sotomayor are skyrocketing. A boom of betting for 75 votes for Sonia in Senate
Now gamblers are paying almost 78 dollars that Sonia will be confirmed with more than 75 votes of the Senate. See the chart and how the prices are skyrocketing.
A visit to INTRADE.COM let us see how bettors and gamblers are persuaded that Sonia Sotomayor is going to be confirmed. See the charts of increasing prices.
Gamblers and Bettors are always better than polls at predictions, and zillions of times better than foolish prejudiced and passionate journalists. ( those are the worst seers in these games )
That means that there is a possibility that we have an additional task of blogging the Triumph of Sonia. Just a probability or possibility. The Triumph is not secure.
In that case. … We have to decide whether we blog the Senate Victory as the defeat of the Republicans or some Bad Guys.
Or as the Victory of Good Americans, including millions of Whites…. People that are kind and nice. The Good Soul of America soars, this is very sincere …. I love those Senate Ladies when they speak of Sotomayor … There are millions of people like Amy Kloubuchar and Diane Feinstein, without Racism or Prejudices and with a Big Heart.
Negativity is very ugly, but springs from passion, and passion in writing is the best motor….
On the other side, there is something called History, and History wants and loves the Good People, an “American Story” and not the Fools …. although one or two villains are good for poetical reasons.
You can not have a good novel or movie without a villain !!
Perhaps we can reach a solution to this heavy riddle and dilema. What am I going to write if Sonia conquers ???
In MILENIALS.COM, my blog, I am blogging furiously the Senate Hearings :

There was no point going through the hearings, Sotomayor was going to be confirmed no matter what. What Prez. Obama wants, Prez. Obama gets. It was disgusting to me that she refused to give an answer on abortion and gun rights. She is a left-wing activist judge who will completely ignore the Constitution.
