Post your Feburary 1st 2009 predictions right here!
I mean _EVERYTHING_, assuming we sweep the entire nation and _actually_ get a filibuster-proof Democratic Senate (61-39), Democratic House and Democratic President.

What is your prediction as to what will happen?

Mine:

- All oil/gas companies far and wide are now nationalized and ordered to start paying HEAVY taxes and back taxes and front taxes, whatever the hell there is left over - 40 billion dollars in 4 months, paid directly back to the government coffers, the remaining profits are to be shared.

- Chimp and his maladministration are indicted in Washington, DC, and after a Democratic President finally signs off the ICC treaty, immediately ships the entire maladministration to the Hague for war crimes.

- Profiteers (war and otherwise) are indicted as well - monies will go back to the government coffers.

- Corporations will lose their "corporate personhood" and have to PAY taxes, re-hire all laid-off workers, give them a living wage, full health benefits paid 100% by the corporations.

- Speaking of health care, NO MORE DENIALS from heath care corporations - meaning that they have to pay 100% of their coffers to people who are sick and needs surgery, transplants, whatever.

- Constitutional amendment guaranteeing that there will NEVER be a reason to go to war unless PROVOKED by other countries or likewise.

That's all about I can think of yours - why not add yours? Yeah, I know my predictions sounds outrageous, but it's fun.

1. That assumption isn't one I can accept.

As unbelievable and incomprehensible as it may seem, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if McCain is president next year.
