The election is about to get really hairy. The communication directors for the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee are betting on the outcome of Tuesday’s election by offering to go bald if they lose.
DNC Communications Director Brad Woodhouse challenged his counterpart at the RNC, Sean Spicer, over Twitter on Tuesday morning.
.@seanspicer - want to get in on this hair betting thing? Election loser allows the winner to shave his head on the air? You in?

Spicer accepted, and the taunting began, as Spicer tweeted back: “u will look even funnier w/out hair.”
It isn’t the only hair-brained bet in the election. Obama campaign Senior Adviser David Axelrod bet his mustache of 40-years standing on victories in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Minnesota, while MSNBC News host Joe Scarborough said he will grow a mustache if Obama wins either Florida or North Carolina.
