With all due respect to your prediction, things were coming into pretty clear focus by 10/26.
On the other hand, my FRiend, I too made a prediction about the same time.
I predicted Herb Kohl will announce his retirement in 6 to 8 months... and that Rusty Feingold (or perhaps, Ambassador Feingold by then) will announce his intent to run for the seat Kohl is vacating.
One thing to predict, another thing to be right on with the margin of victory. And Rusty the Red may very well run for Herb’s senate seat, but I think he is going to dabble in the 2012 POTUS race. The left loves him, and the anit-war, illegal immigration, enviornmental wacko left is disgusted with Barry now. Russ almost ran in 2008 if you recall, but was smart enough to see Obama had the liberal wing of the party eating out of his hand. Now the ‘moderates’ in the Dem Party have been thrown out of office and the radical leftists are pissed. Feingold can play right into that anger with Obama. We will see how things transpire:)
Please don’t even say it!!!
.... and Paul Ryan will run against him?
