With Mitt Romney (R-Bellagio) in a gambling mood, maybe he should consider these wagers as well:

• $10,000 in Hanukkah gelt with Newt Gingrigh over who’s Bibi-er than thou with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

• 1000 Krugerrands with Ron Paul over who despises Gingrich more.

• A case of Purina with Rick Santorum over who has a tougher man-on-dog record (winnings go to Seamus either way)

• A Vidal Sassoon gift certificate with Michele Bachmann over who uses more hair product.

• A six-pack of root beer with Jon Huntsman over who had a wilder rumspringa.
