for bookies in Taiwan, which candidate do they prefer? (as in which one's victory/defeat will maximize their profits?)

Disclaimer: AFAIK, it is still illegal(or frowned upon?) to bet on such things in Taiwan.... :)

Actually just saw an article from Jan 4 that Ma was favored by 200,000 votes.

Soong is loong!

Betting is controlled by gangsters, and gangsters are kept in check by the KMT ... so, who do you think they prefer? :ponder:
