Prediction 04 Monday, October 25, 2004

Officer Tom forced me into gambling. Cuffed and bludgeoned, I predicted:

· If 72% turn out happens, which I believe will, then:

ü Kerry will get about 299 electoral votes.

ü Kerry will win by about 5.5% of the popular vote.

ü And then the difficult part of digging out of the morass and debt will fall in other laps.

ü And then the battle between Cons and Conservatives in Republican Party may ensue.
