Last Friday I noted...

...that the betting websites still predict that Hillary beats Jeb in 2016.

Today Paddy Power has the generic Democratic candidate at a slight advantage (4/6) over the Republican (6/5), with Hillary (even odds) still beating Jeb (4/1).

Case closed. You can all go home now. Nothin' to see here. Right?

And yet . . . the Donald is now in second place in the Republican race:

Jeb (13/8)
Trump (7/2)
Walker (5/1)

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Paddy Power usually moves glacially. But not now. Is something happening here? Is the GOP primary becoming a two-man race? Does Trump actually have a shot at the nomination? Could he possibly be our next president?

Go back to this page on Paddy Power and check it out:

Hillary (even)
Jeb (4/1)
Trump (7/1)

Wow.
