Latest VP Odds - Hillary Leads - Sorry - US Citizens Can't Bet
Hillary is the leading VP candidate with 3-1 odds whereas Obama is a longshot at 12-1. The other favorites are Kathleen Sebelius, Jim Webb, Wesley Clark and Bill Richardson. Tim Pawlenty is the leading republicans VP candidate. Ironically, you have to pay 13 to return 8 to bet on Obama whereas Hillary offers pretty good odds as a 5-1 longshot.

Wish Schweitzer was doing better. I think he's my new fave pick.

12. According to Gambling 411, there is one site . . .
That will actually be accepting best from U.S. citizens, sportsbook.com. I guess Hillary could always retire her debt by betting against herself, then not pursuing the VP nomination. j/k
