I will leave this forum for a week if Bernie defeats Clinton in the Nevada primary.
I'll take on as many people who want to join the bet.

Interesting. I think you will need to define 'defeat'. Are we talking winning most pledged delegates, winning the PV or both? Because there is a good chance for a split decision.

Bernie will lose both in my opinion. It will be Hillary's comeback!

Can I bet that I change my name to "Bornie Sandas" and change my avatar to D-VT for a week should he even break even?

I'm willing to take the bet, on the condition that, rather than having to leave for a week, I will have to chance my name to President Hillary Clinton (D-NY), change my avatar to D-NY, and put various Hillary Clinton-related pictures in my signature for a week.

You have to do two straight power hours if Bernie wins...

I won't leave (sorry, Noam), but if Sanders wins I'll change my avatar to S-NV and username to "Proud Sandernista" until the day after Super Tuesday. Not really a bet, but just for lulz.

I'm willing to bet anyone that the media will spin the results as bad for Hillary somehow if she wins.

If Hillary won by 20 points I bet the pundits will talk about how she underperformed because she led by 50 a year ago.

And if worst comes to worst they can always fall back on the "Hillary is losing millennials!" narrative.

But too many of them had to work the late shift at da restaurant and so Bernie lost Sad
