2011 Predictions

How did I do last year? I did predict Rich Rodriguez's firing and Euro riots over austerity programs. I nailed the number of Senate seats the GOP won, but was way off on the House. I also predicted some major Dem defeats that did not occur. Although there was not widespread rioting, tensions over immigration are rearing their head in Europe.

I did not get: The Yanks did not have a year for the ages. No one died on a reality show (came close overseas though). Blue Rays still exist. The Mullahs still run Iran.

and some predictions:

The Economy: Shows some improvement, but no one feels it. Housing remains sluggish.

Korea: A war does not break out on the Korean Peninsula. The U.S. will back down (again) and give the North what they want. (Kudos to South Korea for standing up to the North).

Wikileaks: Julian Assange goes to jail. His idiot supporters will protest.

Politics: House Republicans hold hearings on health care reform which make the program even less popular. Also, there will be a major Obama Administration scandal.

Sports: Ohio State goes on probation.
