6. Eric Holder will dig in, the press will circle the wagons, and he will keep his job.
7. The Washington Post will set a record for most consecutive days running essentially the same article to remind us that George Allen used the word macaca in 2006.
8. The Occupy movement will gain steam when the weather gets nice, and something very ugly will finally happen at one of their rallies.

I think WE will be catching (and eating) squirrel if Obama is re-elected.

Excellent predictions, Sally. Not too sure about 1. I don't care a whit about 2 and 3. Hoping for number 4. Expecting 5-7 and 9. 8 has already happened but, along with our President's praise of the occupiers, evades our ever watchful media's coverage. 10 and 11 just plain made me smile.

I'm just hoping this election doesn't leave us telling grandchildren that "Happy New Year" used to be something we told our friends and loved ones when we actually thought there was a possibility of such an outcome in this country. Four more years of this madness will seal that fate, I'm afraid.

Nevertheless, while we can still say it with some sense of possibility: "Happy New Year" to all of you.
