Bobert, were I you I'd take the bet.

As an aside, a good friend of mine who lives in a south-western state of the USA is a small-business man. He is also as left of center as I am, meaning he's close to being a socialist. He's not voting for Obama because the new regulations regarding small businesses are breaking him. He expects to have to close down his business--something he's worked hard at for thirty-five or so years. The putrid organization known as the EPA--its new stature and authority redefined by Bush and carried further by Obama--has become an enemy of the people. I can sure see why Americans are having difficulties with this election. Prepackaged crap just don't cut it no more.
