I predict that I will be able to post on this board all throughout 2012.
Two points for each prediction
Minus one point for each one that turns out wrong
Most points gets a six pack of good beer from RG in Jan 2013. Assuming we aren't all dead, of course.
I predict that I will be able to post on this board all throughout 2012.
I predict Nbadan will still be exaggerating the record of his 2005 predictions.
If it is, he must get his vertical from the white half of his family.
I might suggest more points be awarded for degree of difficulty.
Agreed. Predicting a hurricane will hit a coastal town = .0125 points.
I predict that Politics in the USA will continue to be business as usual.
That each party will continue to blame the nations problems on the other party.
That politicians will continue to work for the highest bidder and will continue to place their personal agendas before the good of the nation and of the people.
Rich will get richer and the poor will continue to get screwed.
That people will continue to be sucked into the "politics" game and continue to play along with the system that is meant to keep the haves..."haves"...and the have nots..."have nots"...
That citizens will continue to believe that their "votes" really count.
That anytime someone mentions how worthless our votes are...that someone will trot out the old..."if you don't vote-you have no right to complain" quote that only keeps people playing this rigged political game.
That innocent people will be harmed throughout the world in the name of god.
...and in the name of freedom, in the name of greed,corruption,etc...
That the USA will continue to blindly promote the agenda of Israel-no matter what it costs or who gets hurt.
That citizens will demand and cry for "change"...when all they really want is the status quo...that nothing will change until a true "revolution" and overthrow of this system is actually desired by the "have nots."
If any of these are wrong....I will grow wings and fly.
Hmmmm...
OK, I'll play.
Obama loses in 12 and it will be all about the economy.
Stagflation will set in, official unemployment will still hover around 10, real around 18.
No substantive deficit reduction agreement will be reached...interest rates will rise, consumer price index will rise, wages won't keep up with inflation. Housing prices will continue to fall across the country. Misery index will break all records.
Republicans will end up with some weird ticket like Romney/Bachman to keep the crazies in line.
Gitmo will still be open.
Oil will still be 100+ a barrel
Arab Spring will turn into Anarchy Summer as civil order fails in many parts of northern Africa. The artificial post colonial map will degenerate more into traditional tribal zones.
Boutons will still be bat crazy.
Some asshole gets elected president
The party of bags will control congress
Rick Perry gets the GOP nomination with a minority or female VP candidate that we haven't even heard considered as a GOP Presidential candidate to this point.
Obama retains the Presidency by a slim margin, thanks in part to a conservative third party candidate siphoning votes away from Perry.
The emails of executives at a major financial ins ution will be hacked and released on Wikileaks.
Pandora will merge with XM/Sirius to offer user-generated playlists and original content across multiple platforms.
Maria Bello will win the Primetime Emmy for Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her role in NBC's Prime Suspect, which will not be renewed for a second season.
The NFL will have a Super Bowl. The NBA will not have a Championship.
There will be at least one hurricane in the Gulf.
There will be no selective service.
That's toooo easy - you should lose points for that one!![]()

WC will vote for the red team
WC will argue that some people legally able to vote shouldn't be allowed to vote
WC will tell you statistics are meaningless at X point in time/blue pollster made them
WC will tell you statistics are significant at Y point in time/red pollster made them
WC will get bitter and remind us about lib media bias
WC will make some patently absurd claim
WC will try to get out of said patently absurd claim by moving goalposts/invoking some technicality
![]()
LOL...
You sure are infatuated with me.
I'll give you a 90% likely on that. Depends who the republican nominee is and who the 3rd party candidates are.
Only those who are not actually net tax payers, but living off others hard earned money.
I will only maintain the concept that facts make statistics, but statistics don't make facts. I will temper that with if I feel the polling was biased or not also.
I don't need to be bitter to remind people about lib s.
Maybe to you. Start opening your mind.
If you say so.
I still can't believe how obsessed you've become of me. You should go see a shrink.
I just made a bunch of predictions. We'll see if I'm right or not. Not sure why you feel the need to respond, tbh. Where are your predictions?
LOL...
I'm curious what you are so infatuated with me.
Why are they about me?
You're just too predictable, so I feel I get a better shot at winning this... I'll end up being right or wrong. We'll see.
Let's see your predictions.
I haven't been paying enough attention this early in the game. I have no prediction yet.
Elnono wants answers.
ElNono, WC has pretty much already conceded that all those things are going to happen. May as well end that part of the thread here.
I'm certainly not expecting surprises with my picks.![]()
I don't see any 2012 predictions from you yet.
