The House is Covering All Bets

Today's odds:

1. DeLay is out by the end of May. / 2-1 and on its way to a sure thing.

2. Frist compromises on the "nuclear option." / 4-1 and growing (he "wins" short-term by stretching out the fight).

3. Bolton is confirmed for the U.N. / 3-1 and growing the longer it takes.

4. Bush splits SS benefits/taxes from personal/private accounts in order to get something, anything, through so he can claim victory. / Even money

5. Michael Jackson is convicted of underage freakiness. / The house won't touch that money (yuck!)
