"In our opinion this race is well and truly over with nothing short of a miracle stopping the Republicans taking down the House," said Ken Robertson, communications manager for Paddy Power, the Irish bookmaker. Advertisement Robertson said with the 1 to 50 odds it made no sense to keep taking bets, meaning it would take $50 to win an additional $1. Bookies Power and Victor Chandler give Democrats 2 to 9 odds to keep control of the Senate, The Washington Times said Wednesday.
