Sports Betting: Obama and Dems Still Favorites in 2012 Despite Scott Brown Whitewash

In the free picks section not only does Matt Rivers have a free winner for tonight but ScoresOddsPicks.com continues to give away premium picks for free in both college basketball and the NBA including some ESPN odds winners.  

Politicos may be interested in the fact the SportsBook betting line still has the Democrat Party -160 to regain the White House in the 2012 Election. Republicans are +120. A third party is +3000.

These Presidential betting odds are despite the stunning defeat the Democrats took yesterday when Scott Brown won the Massachusetts Senate seat vacated by liberal lion Ted Kennedy.

Speaking of that great state, WEEI sports radio in Boston has fired veteran Pete Sheppard.

The All-American Basketball League has stirred a controversy saying it will start a basketball league of all-white American-born men.
