US Presidential Election Betting 2012 As Tea Party Support Strengthens
Wednesday 03 November 2010 at 13:36
Barack Obama has suffered a midterm blow to his presidency and his re-election chances as support grows for the Republicans and the oddly named Tea Party. The Democrats led by Obama lost overall majority of the House Of Representatives in the Mid Term Elections to the Republicans and will now find new legislation much tougher to implement.
Voters deserted the President and his individual odds have drifted to win the 2012 election to 1/1 with Ladbrokes and William Hill. Mitt Romney for the Republicans is 8/1 with Bet 365 and Victor Chandler to be the next President and Tea Party pin up girl Sarah Palin is 14/1 with Bet 365 and William Hill to be the first female President of the United States. The Tea Party named after a defining incident in the American Revolution is a a conservative political movement that is anti big government and all that Barack Obama stands for, the party has grass roots support from middle America and is a growing force to be reckoned with. You can also back a women to become next President at 6/1 with Ladbrokes, and with the aforementioned Palin and Hilary Clinton prominent in US politics this looks good value.
The Democrats are still favourites to win the US 2012 elections at 5/6 with Ladbrokes with the Republicans at odds against of 11/10 with Bet 365 and Victor Chandler, but if the President continues to lose support after being swept to power on a wave of goodwill these prices may well flip flop.
