TBOGG gets psychic
The "somewhat popular" blogger TBOGG has an outstanding post on elections in general and what he predicts will happen in specific.
It's great.
Here are some things that will happen:Go here for the whole thing (with links).
- No matter how many seats the Democrats take in the House it won't be enough to keep the Republican echo chamber from pointing out that it most certainly is not a mandate, while all the time whining about the loss of control of the committees.
- Joe Lieberman is going to win and it will somehow translate as support for the war and civility and common sense...and nobody in the media will point out what a sleazy campaign he ran.
- There will be at least one upset that the polls didn't predict and that will be held up as evidence that all polls are always wrong...except when they side with your candidate.
- There will be reports of brown people voting which will cause Michelle Malkin to go off the rails. Okay. Farther off the rails.
- Several Republican congressmen with ethical clouds hanging over them will be re-elected only to have to step down later when indictments are handed down.
- Matt Drudge will hype something completely trivial unless Madonna does something to distract him which makes him take his eye off of the ball.
- Within a week, embargoed news about the war will be released and people will find out things in Iraq are even worse then we suspect.
- Win or lose, George Allen's national aspirations are finished. Fertig! Verfallen! Verlumpt! Verblunget! Verkackt!
- Lots of recounts.
- Michael Steele will lose..but that won't stop Republicans from touting him to run with McCain in 2008 because they believe that they are just one Negro away from perpetual electoral domination.
- Harold Ford will lose because he is a lousy candidate who is transparently phony.
- If either Marilyn Musgrave or JD Hayworth loses I will be one happy boy.
- You will see one politician elected who does not represent your district or state and you will wonder what the hell is wrong with the people of that district or state. That politician will probably be Tom Tancredo.
- You should probably TIVO Katherine Harris' concession speech so you can play it later at parties.
- Pelosi fever! Catch it!
- The most banal no-content election blogging will come from Mary Katharine Ham who, while under the delusion that she is teh hot, will provide the kind of political insights one might expect from the assistant night manager down at Wet Seal.
Your best source for a sense of what is happening will still be at Kos and MyDD. The best post-mortem will come from Digby. As usual.- Dick Cheney will be spending election day hunting with his daughter who will not get shot in the face because she is quicker on her feet than a 78-year old man. Besides , it's not lesbian season in South Dakota ...yet.
- Blogger will go down throughout the day.
- I will be around, Blogger permitting.
Love the cartoon!

Nico, (and everyone else)
When a story is the lighter colored box that means it's a quote.
The stuff above is from TBOGG, not myself.
Ask him.
I myself like Ford a lot and think he's a seriously gifted campaigner and a smart guy . I hope he wins.
