and Romney being the GOP nominee. $100 against each. I have no doubt they will nominate a male WASP as they always have. I'm just glad he isn't in the race yet, or that these two haven't fallen yet.


Edited to add: The sad thing is you can't wager on politics within the US. Stupid restriction.

6. ...and if Perry jumps in he is easily labeled as "another govenor from texas? you know what happened
the last time." and the dems could unleash a barrage on the previous administration.
