I predict now that the Republicans will win this election, take the high ground of 'first woman elected into the white house', and we will see 8 years of McCain, 8 years of Palin, and the democrats will continue to limp along, unwilling to engage and attack when they are strong, and tactically incompetent at responding effectively to Republican attacks when they come.

I'd like to believe that's not true, but I see this, and I expect it to continue.
