If there isn't enough misery, sirs and Richie and Christians will all listen to Rush and Hannity and whomever else until they are so miserable it will make up for those that are happy. They are prepared to be martyrs.

Perhaps in the class clown's home.  For the rest of the country, as of 6/08, it's 8.01

McCain has been written off many times. But he keeps coming back from the dead, like Dracula or Richard Nixon. I wouldn't write the old warhorse off yet. It wouldn't be out of character for him to pull a surprise or two out of his bag.

Well, unfortunately for you, I provided a source.  You've provided....as usual, squat

You have anything of substance to add, Xo?  Or are you just going to keep with the kneejerk driveling?

How is a "misery index" anything substantial?

BT...my prediction today Oct 16th
Obama 51
McCain 49


But it can change rapidly.

My prediction if Obama wins in 2008 and is still alive at mid-term 2010
Republicans will retake both the House & Senate like 1992.

Because it references an objective measure of a President's tenure in office.  And that it fits the parameter of the thread title, referring to predictions.  That's how.  Your typical snide response was nothing more than.......typical.  But don't worry, Miss Cynthia will give you a pass

There are reports today that the Obama campaign is ramping up pushes in states like West Virginia and Kentucky.

Over the next two or three weeks, I expect Obama to broaden his lead.

I'm going to go out on a  limb and predict:

Obama 56%

McCain 42%

Other 2%

My wish would be to see him win above 60 and have this nation supporting him almost totally after the election but I doubt the Hannitys and Limbaughs of the world will sit back, shut up and let the RR's, Richpo's, Christian's and Sirs' of the world actually think for themselves.

You didn't find it creative? Insightful?
