Republican Nomination
John McCain --- 21.8 / About 4.6 to 1 (Bet $1, win $4.60) Rudy Guiliani --- 17.8 / About 5.6 to 1 Bill Owens --- 12.6 / About 7.9 to 1 Bill Frist --- 12.1 / About 8.3 to 1 Mitt Romney --- 10.1 / About 10.0 to 1 Jeb Bush --- 8.0 / About 12.5 to 1 George Allen --- 5.5 / About 18.2 to 1 Colin Powell --- 4.7 / About 21.3 to 1 Tom Ridge --- 3.5 / About 28.6 to 1 Chuck Hagel --- 2.2 / About 45.5 to 1 Condeleeza Rice --- 2.2 / About 45.5 to 1 A.Schwarzenegger --- 1.6 / About 62.5 to 1 Tommy Thompson --- 1.4 / About 71.4 to 1 George Pataki --- 1.3 / About 77.0 to 1 Dick Cheney --- 0.6 / About 166 to 1
Democratic Nomination
Hillary Clinton --- 34.1 / About 2.9 to 1 (Bet $1, win $2.90) Evan Bayh --- 13.0 / About 7.7 to 1 John Edwards --- 9.5 / About 10.5 to 1 Bill Richardson --- 8.8 / About 11.4 to 1 Christopher Dodd --- 6.8 / About 14.7 to 1 Al Gore --- 5.7 / About 17.5 to 1 John Kerry --- 5.5 / About 18.2 to 1 Ed Rendell --- 5.1 / About 19.6 to 1 Tom Vilsack --- 5.0 / About 20.0 to 1 Joe Biden --- 4.5 / About 22.2 to 1 Howard Dean --- 3.8 / About 26.3 to 1 Harold Ford --- 3.1 / About 32.3 to 1 Wesley Clark --- 2.7 / About 37.0 to 1 Patrick Leahy --- 2.5 / About 40.0 to 1 Joseph Lieberman --- 2.2 / About 45.5 to 1 Barack Obama --- 1.9 / About 52.6 to 1
Why isnt Haley Barbour on the list? I think Gov Mark Sanford might be a possibility too.
I'm surprised also that Mark Warner is not on the Demo list. It might make sense for them to nominate him. But I kind of doubt the gun hating, abortion loving lefties will go for him. Same with Evan Bayh.
I for one would LOVE to see Hillary get the nomination. Because if she gets it, there is NO WAY she will win the presidency. She will scare the pants (or, in her case, pantsuits) off mainstream voters.
I also think you're correct. Gore-Clinton in 2008, and they will lose.
Hillary Clinton --- 34.1 / About 2.9 to 1 - What can be said; she's the odds-on favorite.
Evan Bayh --- 13.0 / About 7.7 to 1 - SUCKER BET! Taranto's already got his Bahy-ku set.
John Edwards --- 9.5 / About 10.5 to 1 - Pretty boys finish last.
Bill Richardson --- 8.8 / About 11.4 to 1 - He couldn't deliver New Mexico this time, which is a plus for his VP chances.
Christopher Dodd --- 6.8 / About 14.7 to 1 - The author of the provisional ballot will get some consideration.
Al Gore --- 5.7 / About 17.5 to 1 - L-O-S-E-R.
John Kerry --- 5.5 / About 18.2 to 1 - Ask Algore how successful his 2004 run was or Fritz how he never won anything after betting wiped out by Reagan in 1984.
Ed Rendell --- 5.1 / About 19.6 to 1 - Big state, has a big machine, but is he lieberal enough?
Tom Vilsack --- 5.0 / About 20.0 to 1 - No chance. Richardson without the Clintonista ties.
Joe Biden --- 4.5 / About 22.2 to 1 - He's so saddened. Oh so soddened.
Howard Dean --- 3.8 / About 26.3 to 1 - Put some covering action on him just in case Hiliary doesn't make it to 2008.
Harold Ford --- 3.1 / About 32.3 to 1 - The best thing about him is his name sounds a lot like the best Republican President a DemonRAT could ever have wished for.
Wesley Clark --- 2.7 / About 37.0 to 1 - He served his role, now he'll shut up.
Patrick Leahy --- 2.5 / About 40.0 to 1 - His only chance is if the Soviet Union returns and he can start leaking to them again.
Joseph Lieberman --- 2.2 / About 45.5 to 1 - Loserman.
Barack Obama --- 1.9 / About 52.6 to 1 - THE dark horse.
Evan just won relection, and gave the Keynote speech at the 2000 Dem Convention. Lately, if you watch his voting record, he has voted with the GOP and against the DEMs on many issues. He is a conservative Democrat.
I just got some inside info on exit polling data. Hillary is winning by a landslide (/sarcasm)

An 11-point swing--everything else going the same way--would give the Dems the White House.
Gallup has Rudy comfortably ahead of McCain. Curious that Tradesports hasn't responded to that poll.
No it wouldn't. It would give the Republicans a 275-263 victory.
I believe Tradesports are overrating Rudy's chances. I don't care how popular he is in a poll in 2004. If he campaigned in 2008 for the GOP nomination, he would get toasted.
The man has a low ACU rating of 22 lifetime and 30 in 2002 and 2003, it's not good but high enough for a moderate Democrat
Indiana's not Ohio, but it does have 11 electoral votes. Evan could give them to the Dems.
If Indiana goes blue so does Ohio.
The man is formidable.
Money should be in the hands of people who earn it not the government, you commies. LLLeett's go!"
go long Awenold, sell McCain short.
He's got a beautiful wife and twin sons as well
Why is he on there?
Sorry, I was working on old data. I guess I had not seen the final results.
