Clinton is less of a sure bet as odds of Trump win increase
NJ Advance Media for NJ.com ^ | September 13, 2016

While Hillary Clinton remained the favorite to be elected president in November, the odds of Donald Trump winning the keys to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.  have increased, according to European betting houses.

London-based William Hill, whose name adorns the sports book at Monmouth Park in Oceanport, and Dublin-based Paddy Power both set Clinton's current odds to win at 8 to 15, giving her a 65 percent chance of becoming the first female U.S. president.

Trump's odds at both bookmakers were 6 to 4, giving him a 40 percent chance of winning the White House. When he first began his presidential campaign, betting houses were offering odds of 150 to 1.

Numbers are going to flip.

A lot of investors are starting to hedge their bets now that Hillary’s campaign is disintegrating.

Trump is going to win. They’re just late to catch on.

Hillary circles the drain as the media and uniparty keep trying to plug it.

Real life odds for Hillary don’t look good.

Trump moved ahead by 3% points in two polls that came out today.

Every one who is not in denial is starting to see the writing on the wall.

Less of a sure bet?

Since when has she been a sure bet?

No need for an election I guess. She won. It’s a sure thing.

Horse stuff!

I don’t think this will have long term damage if it is really Pneumonia. All will be forgotten regarding her health if she holds up at the debate. The cover up is what is damaging.
That said if it isn’t pneumonia.........she is finished.

I don't think it was so much they got it wrong as it was trying to sway public opinion, much like they are trying for Hillary. Electorally, this is still a close race, but one more taped instance of Hillary having a medical problem or missing out on the debates for health reasons, and she won't win.

Two words that can no longer be said without smirking:

"Deplorable" and "Inevitable"

Seeing she is benched, you can bet pneumonia is a cover story.

What’s really ailing her? No one knows.

You remind me of the freepers who said that 0 would never have a second term. There is still a strong possibility that the witch will ride her broom into the white hut. Now is the time for Trump supporters and the Trump campaign to double down. I just gave to the Trup campaign again, and I urge fellow freepers to do the same.

Think of flight 93. If you do nothing you're doomed for sure. If you give it your all you may still lose, but you go out fighting. "Never Never Never Never surrender." Churchill.

“What’s really ailing her? No one knows.”

What’s really ailing her is the fear of wearing orange for the next 10-20. She cannot drop out until the rats are 100% sure that whoever they bring in will not be subject to Trump ads or a debate.

Everything happening right now is to keep Hillary out of the debates. Trump asking for a debate without a moderator was a stroke of brilliance. If she says yes, she is toast. If she says no, everyone will know it is because she is too ill and the media cannot help her.

She was never a sure bet. She never had a huge lead.

I did not really fear Hillary Clinton as a candidate in 2007, even before Barry Soetoro made the scene.

It has always bothered me that both sides of the aisle regarded her presidency as a virtual fait accompli.

I think everyone, including the likes of Limbaugh and Hannity, is too influenced by the MSM propaganda.

Hillary Clinton is not only - wait for it - deplorable, she is unlikable. Women are by far the biggest left-leaning voting bloc, and women generally prefer to vote for a charming male, not a shrewish female. (This “sexist” observation, based upon the real world, is free of charge.)

Her only hope is as it has always been: voter fraud, via illegal aliens, voting dead, ballot stuffing, and, now, electronic sabotage.

Just what America needs after eight years of obama - hillary’s mental epilepsy promoting Marxism.

Brexit was really close and I expect this election to be closer than many optimists around here do. I think Trump can win, but he has to pick up the swing states to do it. It really is a 7 state race and he needs to treat it like that.

The democrat machine produces votes. Don’t know how much more proof of this people need, but they will get out their vote. Trump has to get out his and win the independents/swing voters.

"What’s really ailing her? No one knows."

There is a great video on Youtube by a doctor who just about proves it is Parkinson's disease.
