if I were to pledge all my winnings to Kiva, do you think they'd pledge to cover any losses?

Kiva sponsored gambling? Sign me on!
I love how you can pretty much gamble on/with everything these days!

If the US Caucasuses (Caucasi?) just would bring out an unexpected winner, I could also fund a few gambling-funded Kiva loans... betting against the odds doesn't seem to be going so hot so far. I was all excited when Edwards pulled ahead at first, would have been somewhere around a 20:1 payoff Sad Bought Huckabee before he took off, so him winning there was at least a small victory Smiley
The odds on McCain and Obama for NH are very high right now, so I'm shorting them - hopefully either of those pays off.

Ahh, margin trading - what could be more fun? Smiley
(Ron Paul was at 6pts in Iowa - that is to win, not to score any delegates. Easy money, though due to the low odds not a whole lot)

Now should I bet on the Bird Flu hitting the US by march? Maybe an upcoming US recession?
Gambling Addiction? I can quit whenever I want to, really...  Laugh
