Commenting on some predictions from the last year:

- Quite a many people predicted Reagan's death, though it certainly wasn't surprising.

- Many people predicted that Dean would become the Democratic nominee, thus showing that making primary predictions year ahead is a bunch of big bum poo. Though that shouldn't stop anyonw. Incidentally OMG HILLARY IS TOTALLY GONNA WIN IN 2008

- Snapcase made some interesting musical predictions:

God, sometimes I hope this forum had that LAFFOLAFFOLAFFO graphic from Something Awful, because this certainly would have warranted it. I mean, every other hip 80's band seemed to have reunion tours - except the Talking Heads. Who woulda thought - it figures!

- Sandman predicted that an important EU politician would get assassinated in the core of EU. Theo van Gogh, anyone? Not exactly a politician, but still...

No, Condoleeza is gonna kick Hellary in the panties so hard she'll fly through one side of the Whitehouse and out the other; not to mention she'll miss the Oval Office completely.

Or maybe the Governator might overtake her, but for that to happen the constitution will first need to be ratified.

You don't appeal to the moderates. You are far too religious, and that doesn't appeal to many. You will secure one small voting bloc, but you won't go beyond that. You probably can become a mayor in some town in Kentucky or Alabama though.

You reckon?

Well, take a look at you Gai boy. No conservative or moderate is gonna vote for a homosexual repub and it shows. Many state's populations have already voted on outlawing gay marriage by wide margins. You don't stand a chance!

I'm registered non-partisan. I don't have a party. Can't really categorize myself anymore. First off Bush spends far too much money and is too conservative in social views for me. But I still stand with him on a great deal of issues. The democrats are far too the left for me to begin with. I'm fiscally conservative, and socially centerist. Many state's populations have violated the rights of a minority... but nonetheless, people will learn. You are the one who stands no chance however. You stand less of a chance then I do, fundie.

Oh and by the way, my religious beliefs are my personal beliefs and scientifically those don't have much of an effect on an election, especially if I don't talk about them in a campaign and don't make them an issue.

It's where I stand politically that really counts and I'm not as far to the right as you might think. As a matter of fact, I'm almost a centrist.

Every political test I've taken on the Internet shows that I'm very close to a centrist.

So these political tests are very accurate? Why don't you take that one gay test and see how that turns out..

Don't take everything you read on the internet as fact.

The politicalcompass.org now categorizes me as a right libertarian last time I checked. But I dunno (economic: +7.00, social: -1.01)

I have to go to bed anyways.. I don't really have the time for this. I'm the one in the end who understands what America stands for. And that means every person is treated properly. Atheist, christian, gay, straight, whatever. You however do not believe that. Good night..

It's an interesting discussion to be had, certainly, especially as it seems that neither MNG or Fezcarlo seemed to notice the possibly slightly sarcastic I mean like I don't know but there certainly something in there but whatevs undertone in my Hillary comment.
