The republicans have a brokered convention. Bush or Rubio is the nominee. If I have to pick a winner, I’d say Rubio.
I wonder if part of the GOP’s anti-Trump strategy is to encourage (behind the scenes, of course) most of the candidates to stay in the race. That will reduce the chances of Trump winning on the first ballot, after which the establishment can relatively easily install their favorite candidate. I don’t know much about the political parties or their workings, so this scenario could be totally far-fetched. I’d be interested to hear other opinions on it.
On the other side, Hillary wins.
General election, Hillary wins.
About a month ago, I bet a guy at work on the republican nomination. I gave him Trump and Carson (this was when Carson was running almost even with Trump, and everybody else was trailing badly) and I took the field. I don’t see either of those guys winning the nomination.
