Trump moves out into the lead among bettors. . .

[Stargleamer]

Among bettors, Trump has now moved into the lead--just by 1 cent, but still this is the first time I think he's been the favorite there: https://www.predictit.org/Market/1233/Who-will-win-the-2016-Republican-presidential-nomination

It might just be temporary, but I don't think he's ever been in the lead before among gamblers.

1. Now Rubio is tied with Trump for the lead

things change quickly

2. Now it says Cruz is on top.

Looks like the GOP nomination is the jumbled free for all it always was.

5. Cruz is the worst of the lot.

He fucking terrifies me.

[SunSeeker]

9. Yep. He's the smartest, smarmiest and most evil, of the bunch. nt.

10. Absolutely.

3. Predictwise still has Trump as number three

Marco Rubio 35 %
Ted Cruz 26 %
Donald Trump 24 %
Jeb Bush 10 %
Chris Christie 5 %

4. Ugh!

Any of those 5 will be a disaster if they manage to get elected President.

8. That's Not A Very Cheerful Outlook

One of those is going to be the nominee, and if Hillary is our nominee, there is a fair chance that she will lose.

I'd prefer having someone that I could deal with, even though all the options are pretty depressing.

At a glance it appears that Cruz is the scariest of the bunch. Trump is certainly a loose cannon and a wildcard, but it seems like even he is not as far off the deep end as Cruz.

I wish someone could reassure me that at least one of the top 3 won't be horrible for this country's future. I really am worried that Hillary, should she get the nomination, has too much baggage and too many that hate her, to win next November.

6. I can agree with that. Rubio/Kasich. n/t

7. He's certainly getting the most attention among his betters

And I don't mean the GOP candidates.
