ODDMAKERS FAVOR GORE FOR PREZ

ODDMAKERS FAVOR GORE FOR PREZ

LONDON (Wireless Flash) -- If you're placing a bet on who will be the next president of the United States, the smart money seems to be on Al Gore. That's according to the oddsmakers at Ladbrokes, who are placing 8 to 11 odds that the Veep will be heading to the Oval Office come next year. Previously, Ladbrokes had favored Gore's competitor George W. Bush, but a spokesman says Bush's tough fight against John McCain has lowered his odds to even money. The presidential scramble isn't the only political race popular with bettors: Ladbrokes also says the odds favor New York mayor Rudy Giuliani over Hillary Clinton in the New York senate face-off.
