    David,

    Ask her will she accept a 5k bet from you at 3/1 on FG double?
    I will bankroll it if they accept, I promise!


    You will have a chance of having it laid as they might squeeze a bit of PR out of it.
    I will have zero chance of more than a tenner

    Will donate 3k of any winnings to up keep site.

    Longer odds than 3-1? Are you nuts?

    For 3-1 to be accurate, Bacik would have to be odds-on in DC.

    G-dawg is 1/2 in DS. Was yesterday anyway.

    Means Paschal is between 5-2 and 11/4.

    I suppose people have to ask themselves: does PD have between a 26.6% and 28.6% chance of getting elected?

    If he does, thats value. If not, no.

    But Lee will have 50%+. It will all be over in one count.
    Put your shirt on him while he's still 1/2.

    Bacik for Dub Central. But even so 3/1 is long odds.
    If there is a future, it will be Green.

    1/2 on Lee in DS was just a reaction to the headlines. He'll drift out

    Pascal is a lightweight. I reject him.
