Bookmakers HAVE NOT changed the odds of a Hillary win. She is not moving ahead!

You can talk silly all you want. It isn't true.
The bookies haven't changed their odds, and you can *bet* they will when warranted.

These are the same odds posted Sunday >

Who will be elected US President in 2008?

Barack Obama 10/11
John McCain 11/8
Hillary Clinton 5/1
Al Gore 25/1
Wayne Root 66/1
Ralph Nader 250/1
Ron Paul 250/1

1. Because, unlike HRC's supporters, most objective people KNOW Obama won the nomination Super Tuesday
and Clinton camp knows it, too, and are in it for McCain to win it so Hillary can look to 2012.

HRC supporters are SO NAIVE they will wreck the Dem party in order to BELIEVE their lying Clinton heroes.

4. That's because she already lost
She is just sticking around to knee cap Obama, so she can run in 2012

5. I'll be glad when she is formally retired ..
they make such a huge issue over every little bump. It's grating.

M$M keeps the meme going that the race is *close*, and our efforts here to set it straight are almost as futile as trying to get mainstream to heads up to the TRUTH.

11. Quck Question...
(More of a slot player here....)

Does Obama's # mean that you bet $1.10 you win a dollar if he wins and Clinton's # mean that you bet $1.00 and you win $5.00 if she wins?

And does that Nader, "The Jackpot?"

:woohoo:


Thanks.

12. That's right.
Bet 11 to win 10 for Obama. Bet 1 to win 5 for Hillary. I like long shots, but don't usually bet against a strong favorite :evilgrin:
