Also, I'll bet a good $500 that Clinton will not pick Castro as her running mate.

$150 that no Romney state will vote for Hillary

I'll take you up on that.

And for my last two bets (for now):

$15 on Trump being the nominee.
$250 that Trump will not pick Kasich as his running mate.

That is all, all my money is tied up, so I'll be making my leave.

But I know two West Virginians who are all in for Cruz!

Just to clarify, if Indiana is not within 6 points for both parties, Castro would still lose $500 even if no one agrees to bet against him. This applies to all other bets made too. Castro would gain $500 if Indiana is within 6 points for both parties.

Doesn't that mean someone can just make a series of obviously safe bets that nobody accepts in order to earn an infinite amount of money?

This is Atlas. Every bet has at least a chance to be accepted. I was perusing the 2008 boards today, and I happened to find somebody saying McCain would win easily a week before Election Day.

I'll take your bet about Cruz suspending his campaign, Dax.
