    I never make predictions. Especially about the future.

    ok i think im gunna post mine. I have reasons for most of these, but im not here to discuss that. I am here to mystify (i hope) everyone with my "powers" to see into the future....


    who am i kiddin. im probably gunna be wrong on a few and right on a few. here we go:

    Obama will Win PA
    McCain will win Ohio

    the day AFTER the election:
    If McCain wins the stock market will go UP but by less than 250 points
    if Obama wins the stock market will go DOWN by more than 250 points.

    If McCain wins there will be accusations of this country being Racist and that the "Republicans stole ANOTHER election"

    The exit polls will be way off no matter who wins.

    I have heard rumors of riots in the streets if Obama Loses. I dont think this will happen anywhere but if it does the cities to watch will be:
    LA, San Fran, Chicago, Cincinnati, and Detroit.
    the further down that list the less likely they are to riot.


    again, it does not matter who wins, but whoever does, this will be a one term Presidency. If Obama Wins a "truer" conservative will win next time and if McCain wins we will be faced with another Obama-like figure running against him.

    lets see how many i get right/wrong.

    I'm thinking Obama will win, and if he does what he says, I'm sure he'll get re-elected. If McCain wins, and that would be tough, I'm sure things won't get any better and I'm sure from his speeches and palin's that they have no plans.. Just my two cents, I'm really looking forward to what will happen.

    My prediction is a man in a suit will win, with a vice president that is also dressed nicely backing him up.

    I predict kuzi's predictions will be roughly 50% correct.

    kuzi16:
    Obama will Win PA
    McCain will win Ohio

    Correct

    kuzi16:
    the day AFTER the election:
    If McCain wins the stock market will go UP but by less than 250 points
    if Obama wins the stock market will go DOWN by more than 250 points.
    Incorrect. If McCain wins, the stock market will drop 150+ points. If Obama wins, the stock market will go up 250+ points. I've seen a lot of the CNBC coverage lately, and they make Olbermann look neutral. Wall St. wants a Democrat.

    kuzi16:
    The exit polls will be way off no matter who wins.
    This prediction is non-parameterized, and its correctness cannot be measured.
    kuzi16:

    LA, San Fran, Chicago, Cincinnati, and Detroit.
    the further down that list the less likely they are to riot.
    I agree with the prediction that there will be no/minimal rioting in the event of an Obama loss.

    I think both candidates have a good shot at a two-term presidency. This seems to be more a product of good timing than good execution.

    This is what’s going to happen. If McCain wins he is going to be so excited that his ancient heart will give out and the very inexperienced Sarah Palin will take over. Not good for us. Or if Obama wins he will be assassinated by one of the many extremist groups. Then the very crazy Joe Biden will be running the show. So once again not good for us, either way this election turns out it won’t be good for us. Sorry to break the news to you.
    Forgiveness is between you and God, it's my job to arrange the meeting.

    Obama wins PA, obama wins election. Not a bad guy, just not ready for the job and I get the feeling he's a true tax-and-spend if there ever was one.

    my speculation on this comes down to corporate taxes and capitol gains taxes. if you tax big business more they will not make as much. the time to sell would be before the capitol gains tax goes up. Move the money to something that can not be tracked or taxed as much.

    either way i will be watching both days as much as i can. I requested both off of work. I know i have tuesday off but the day after is still up in the air.

    Watch out for riots Kuzi! I had a guy from the obama office stop by tonight, nice guy, was just finishing up hitting the neighborhood. But this afternoon, my lady said a guy from the McCain office was walking the street. I do think it's funny that both camps and on the same day hit my street.
