I can see why gamblers would stick with Wall Street darlings, though. From that point of view, Hillary and Biden are certainly good investments.

As soon as Joe says he won't be running, which is coming soon I believe, Hillary's numbers will go up to about 80%.

Although as of right now it's back to 68-21-10, still a remarkable rise by Biden.

This morning other investors started picking up Clinton shares at what was seen as a bargain. However, Biden is at a new point where the wider market isn't comfortable shorting or buying this early in the day.

Good times.

We had a share dump and buy late last night, I believe.
