Depending on A) how bad the economy is going to be and B) how obstructionist the GOP is going to be (and I think both will fall pretty deep into the "a hell of a lot worse than you think" level of badness) we could actually be talking about almost the same exact topics that we're talking about now this time next year.
As in "Where the bottom is in the markets, how bad unemployment numbers are going to be for this month, how bad will holiday retail sales really be, who Obama will get to fill his empty cabinet positions, when universal health care will finally get passed, when will we start to actually get out of Iraq and Afghanistan, when will we get Bin Laden, and who is going to run in 2012" stuff, just like now...only the lack of answers would be pretty depressing then.
The fact that I can come up with an entirely plausible scenario where we still don't have answers to any of those eight questions by November 12, 2009 is enough to make me go to bed now.
