SportsInteraction.com Post Odds on Miers' Appointment

NEW YORK – (PRESS RELEASE) – Analysts at SportsInteraction.com give Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers strong odds on making it the Nation's highest bench, but included several caveats in their betting lines, indicating that anything can happen in the increasingly volatile Washington DC environment.

SportsInteraction.com is the first online betting site to be licensed and based in North America. Their analysts and odds makers regularly monitor current political events as well as sports to offer their clients a broad range of betting options.

Odds on Harriet Miers are as follows:

Harriet Miers withdraws her name from consideration: 4-1

Harriet Miers appointed to Supreme Court: 5-25

Bush Administration withdraws the Miers nomination: 6-1

When examining the nomination, SportsInteraction.com analysts focused primarily on Miers' lack of experience on the Bench, as well as the brewing scandals in Washington.

"Washington DC is no longer a friendly environment for President Bush and the Republicans," said SportsInteraction.com spokesperson, Kevin Manning. "Given the failed Hurricane Katrina effort, the Tom Delay and Bill Frist scandals and the Valerie Plame affair, we're not ruling out the possibility that Ms. Miers may get chewed up and spit out by the Washington machine."
