Day trading with Andrew Martin

Andrew Martin has to be floored at the irony.

A recap of the path this has taken:
Martin enters race for CD-3 against Jon Porter as self-funded gadfly. When establishment candidate withdraws, Martin is passed over for someone he won't run against, and switches to challenge Chad Christensen in order to give a green flag to Dina Titus for the clear CD-3 nod. He's a decent candidate against Christensen, but mostly because he can self-fund.

At the last minute, Christensen doesn't file, changing the game completely.

No one has this good of luck. No one. But I would day trade my retirement with Andrew Martin for the next few weeks just in case he's on a roll.

Barring a last-minute Moradkhan miracle, the stock price for Mr. Martin just went up.

Conspiracy theory sidenote: this guy collects ex-opponents in a frequency high above the bell curve. Anyone wearing an "I want to believe" t-shirt care to comment?

Quote of the Day

August 20, 2008

"They are both working on the independent voters who will make all the difference in that race, and there aren't going to be many independents in Denver and St. Paul."

-- Mark Peplowski, a political science professor at the College of Southern Nevada, on state Sen. Dina Titus (D-Las Vegas) and incumbent Rep. Jon Porter (R-Boulder City), who will continue campaigning in the 3rd District during their respective national party conventions.
