Re: 2008 Election Props
I think there is real value on taking the Democratic field here at -118.
Hillary has a lot of money and a lot of connections at this point. But most democratic insiders are really skeptical about her ability to win, and that is going to be the most important criteria. Also, in general, so many things can happen between now and 2008 that picking one horse this early is always going to be a dicey proposition. For instance, if there is another major terrorist attack, it is game over for anybody like her who lacks serious foreign policy credentials or military experience. |

America's gotten fed up with Congress and POTUS. I saw on Real Clear Politics a poll that said the job approval ratings for the GOP was 38% and for the Dems it was 35%. You can tell by the mad scrambling by both parties that they know it, too. [/ QUOTE ] I believe polls also say that most American voters are very happy with their own congressmen. |

Re: 2008 Election Props
ok, at sportingbetusa hilary clinton is 3-1 to win.
if the field is -118 couldn't you stand to profit alot? ie. bet $10 on hilary, and bet $25 on the field. either way you win. multiply your wagers by 10,000 and you win alot. i'm only posting this because i don't have the money to invest in a bet that is more than 2 years down the road edit: ah, i just checked and the -108 is for her to win the democratic nominee. that makes things different. nonetheless sportingbetusa has no juice on party to win the election. democrats, republicans both 1-1 |

Re: 2008 Election Props
Dennis Miller might have had it correct when he said at the 2004 Democratic Convention "2008 is going to be called Obama-palooza."
