MR. BUCHANAN: Hillary, Giuliani, Thompson will all endorse McCain.
Of course Guiliani and Thompson would fall in line, that was a no-brainer. The bold prediction here is that Hillary would endorse McCain, and that did not happen. +0
MS. CLIFT: Barack Obama will get another red-state governor endorsing him. And on Super Tuesday, he will win more red states than Hillary Clinton.
New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson did later endorse Obama in the primary. Using 2004 results to determine red state status, Obama won Missouri, Idaho, Alaska, Georgia, Alabama, Kansas, North Dakota, Colorado & Utah. Clinton won Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Arizona,& New Mexico. So 2 for 2 for Eleanor, though 1 is the maximum points per week. +1
MS. CROWLEY: This week the Russians launch long-range missiles into the Atlantic off the coast of France and Spain. Vladimir Putin, even though he's giving up the presidency in about six weeks, he will continue to stoke Cold War tensions to hold on to power.
Well, the Russians already had launched the missles. That's not a prediction. And that Putin would continue to stoke Cold War tensions, well, duh. Let's not go out on a limb there, Monica. +.10
MR. ZUCKERMAN: My prediction was exactly that of Pat's, except for the fact that I don't support Romney on these issues. (Laughter.)
Pat was wrong, and so are you. +0
MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Before Thanksgiving this year, the U.S. unemployment rate will climb to 7 percent.
December 2008 = 7.2 percent. +1
