Current Odds on Obama's Supreme Court Nominee
Judge Sonia Sotomayor is the current front runner for President Obama's nomination to the Supreme Court according to the Irish gambling website, Paddy Power. Here's the line for the top five:
Sonia Sotomayor 13/8
Diane Pamela Wood 9/4
Elena Kagan 4/1
Kim McLane Wardlaw 9/2
Kathleen Sullivan 8/1
Other notables: Cass Sunstein 16/1, Janet Napolitano 50/1, Hillary Clinton 100/1 and Michelle Obama 500/1 (federal anti-nepotism laws make the First Lady a very long shot). Place your bets here. To make "informed" bets, check out National Journal Online's The Ninth Justice Blog for "news and analysis on the search to fill the bench."
Hat tip to Fox News (of course). Note Paddy Power's early line on the 2012 US Presidential Election here. [JH]
