as a political prognosticator, i have limited supernatural powers (for example, at one point i predicted that jim gilmore would emerge from the pack to capture the republican nomination. on the other hand on the morning of the iowa caucuses i predicted that the nominees would be obama and mccain, with obama winning.) but here's a stab. in a month or two sarah palin will be a kind of american folk hero. and john mccain will win the election.

Finally a woman who hates Polar Bears!!!!As long as they go extinct and Alaska gets drilled and Humans get officially off the hook for global warming she will be an American folk hero.

McCain by 3 points?

Not that I would go so far as to predict it, but, as Palin's scandals develop, it is more likely that McCain will dump her before the election. (Her youngest child will become ill and will need her.)
