"Goatee Gamble": Wimp-Out Clause or Legit?

DC journo tweeps are a-Twitter today over whether the latest development in “Goatee Gamble” between ABC’s Jake Tapper and NBC’s Chuck Todd is a “wimp-out clause,” as dubbed by ABC colleague Rick Klein, or legit.

We’re particularly enjoying these exchanges between Tapper, Klein and Politico‘s Jonathan Martin (who apparently only orders drinks with umbrellas in them)…

@jmartpolitico: @thenote — exactly. what’s pt of bet if u have an “out” clause

@jaketapper: @thenote $1,000 is a “wimp-out” clause? thats a lot of bread, man.
