The world is about to see a lot more of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin — and one leading bookmaker is so confident that she’ll stumble in her new role as a Fox News analyst that it has set odds on “which minority group the broadcasting newbie will first offend.— [IMGCAP(1)]Hardly any group gets left out under the odds established by the Irish bookmaker Paddy Power. Gay and lesbian groups are the clear favorites, with 4-1 odds that Palin will offend them first. African-American and Muslim communities tie for second, with 6-1 odds, followed by single parents at 8-to-1, senior citizens and the poor, both at 10-to-1, and Arab Americans at 12-to-1.Jehovah’s Witnesses are at the bottom of Paddy Power’s list, with 25-1 odds that Palin will offend them.And perhaps because the bookmaker is so certain that Palin will stumble as a political pundit, it has also set odds on how long she’ll last at Fox. Paddy Power set 10-11 odds that she’ll be dropped between September and December, with 11-10 odds she’ll remain at the network through 2011.Ford’s A-Head of the Pack?
