Hillary Clinton Likely Dem Nominee For US President

Hillary Clinton is the overwhelming favorite to win the
2008 Democratic nomination for US President according to one of the leading sportsbooks. Clinton
is a prohibitive -275 favorite. Master
handicapper Joe Duffy, CEO of OffshoreInsiders.com
is best known as the top American sports punter and sports betting
handicapper, but has shown to be quite fair and balanced in political
handicapping as well.

“This far removed from the primary elections; I do not
remember a non-incumbent who was this close to being a betting lock” says the sports
betting expert
of Mrs. Clinton.

lists Barack Obama next at +190. The only potential presidential
candidate who could beat Clinton
for the Democratic nomination is Al Gore.
The former Vice President under popular Democratic two-term President
Bill Clinton, Gore has not declared his candidacy.

Bumbling John Edwards is +700 according to the
oddsmakers. Dark horses include Joseph Biden at +2500, Mike Gravel at +3500 and Bill Richardson at
+3500. Gadfly Dennis Kucinich is given as much chance of winning as Michael
Vick. There are betting odds on neither.

While the war on terror is the main issue in the campaign,
let’s hope the winner has views on legal sports gambling that are in the same
camp as Ron Paul, another dark, dark horse presidential hopeful or even in tune
with the pro online gambling views of Libertarian Wayne Root.
