Predictions from the past…

A hundred years ago the Ladies’ Home Journal magazine made predictions about the future.  A good many of them have come true in some fashion,  but I found the ones that have not more interesting,  as they highlight the difficulties of seeing the future.

Predictions…

Keeping in mind that assumptions tend to make asses of us,  here are some predictions from  Quin Hilyer and  Jim Antle and  Peter Wehner,  and some speculation from  Jay Cost.

The Washington Examiner has a  good general election guide.

Politico is reduced to  wondering what Democrats will say Wednesday morning.   RightPundit tries to  fathom why His Oneness is appearing on Ryan Seacrest’s show.   I don’t watch MSNBC,  but John Podhoretz has a funny and  very telling Tweet.

Philip Klein noted the difference between  the size of the venues Pelosi and Boehner booked.  What does it tell you that he has now discovered Pelosi’s party  is closed to the press?

Foreign pundits are  also opining.

Here’s  one prediction I’m quite certain is correct,  and another that isn’t.
