Hil in '08, say online gamblers
President Hillary? Bet on it!
New York's junior senator is the favorite to capture the presidency in 2008, according to several online betting sites.
One, sportsinteraction.com, even has her booked to beat former Mayor Rudy Giuliani - the opponent she never had a chance to face in the 2000 Senate race.
Clinton is listed as a 7-to-2 favorite to take the White House, while the odds on Giuliani, who dropped out of the Senate race when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, are listed at 5 to 1.
Failed vice presidential candidate John Edwards of North Carolina is next, but his one-time running mate, John Kerry, is looking like a real long shot. The Massachusetts senator who lost the race by all of 35 electoral votes to President Bush last year is at the bottom of the pile of 15 potential candidates, as a 40-to-1 dark horse.
