Re: Who is betting against Hillary?
[ QUOTE ]
Anyone got any action on the presidential race? I bet my friend $1000 giving 3 to 1 odds that Hillary will not be the next president of the US. +EV / -EV ? Thoughts? -TheActionKid [/ QUOTE ] Think you should offer your friend $2500 now and save paying him $3000 later. Bad bet. |

Even considering this she'll probably win. [/ QUOTE ] This was true in the past however recent elections have proven this to be wrong now. |

I won $40 off Elliot on Dem control of the Senate last year and I lost a $10 bet with my dad that Kerry would win. I suspected that he would try to maximize the mileage out of the bet so I mailed him cash instead of a check which would have my name and signature on it. He framed the bill. Outside of politics, my record is much, much worse. |

It's not a *terrible* bet, but I think she's basically 50-50 for Pres. Maybe 3:2 against. |
