Fox News co-host Geraldo Rivera took co-host Jesse Watters up on a $1,000 bet Thursday on “The Five” that Republicans will take the House and Senate in the upcoming midterm elections.

Rivera said, “I believe that this race is an absolute toss-up right now. I think the only numbers that matter are the price of gasoline and the Dow. If gas keeps going down and the Dow keeps going up, I think you’ll have at the very worst for the Democrats a divided government. Republicans favored to win the House the Democrats favored to maintain the Senate.”

Watters said, “It is going to be a wave election and you are going to lose the Senate. I’ll bet you a thousand dollars right now.”

Rivera said, “A thousand dollars?”

Watters said, “Both chambers.”

Rivera said, “Both chambers a thousand dollars you got it!”

Rivera and Watters shook hands.
