Unelectable

Postby Gozu » Sat Nov 21, 2009 1:23 am

The knives continue to be sharpened for Malcolm Turnbull with moves from the far-right (Minchin) to install the Mad Monk. What a rabble the Liberal Party are.

If the poodle becomes leader then I'll be tempted to do this :Hangman: ... and I'm in his electorate.

Interestingly, Centrebet have taken their market for "Federal Liberal leader at the next election" offline - an indication to me that the market is too hot at the moment. The last time I saw it was last night when Tony Abbott had firmed slightly to $5.00.

Sportingbet still have their odds up, as follows:
Malcom Turnbull 2.00
Joe Hockey 2.35
Tony Abbott 4.25
Julie Bishop 21.00
Any Other 13.00
Andrew Robb 17.00
Peter Dutton 21.00

Don't worry dedja you can still bet on him under the "Any other" option. The beauty of that bet is that it also covers all the other liberal MP's, including Wilson Tuckey.

Todays odds from Sportingbet:
Malcom Turnbull 2.25 (up from 2.00 yesterday)
Joe Hockey 2.35 (unchanged)
Tony Abbott 3.75 (down from 4.25 yesterday)
Any Other 13.00 (unchanged)
Andrew Robb 17.00 (unchanged)
Julie Bishop 21.00 (unchanged)
Peter Dutton 21.00 (not in yesterdays market)
