Below is an example of using "odds are..."
Does "Odds are you are" mean "the chances that you are a war pessimist are significant"?
Thanks in advance

Are you a war pessimist?
Odds are you are. For almost a decade now, I've been asking people if they think war will ever end. I've surveyed thousands of people, young and old, liberal and conservative, hawks and doves, male and female.
