On Obama winning the presidency, I was clearly wrong. I didn't anticipate the utter meltdown of the McCain campaign (and perhaps McCain himself), the 4 dollar+ gas or the accelerated downturn in the financial markets/economy, all of which were part of the puzzle which came together to give us the electoral result we saw in November. Dunno what any of that has to do with this particular discussion, but there ya go!
