I'm going to go out on a limb and say the next president will be a democrat. I believe this because we will still be in Iraq in '08 and no one will like it.

I believe the new Dem pres will withdraw troops from Iraq immediately. This may set in motion a series of events.

1) Osama Bin Laden releases a video proclaiming liberation of Iraq. Says West is faltering. Calls for attacks on American soil.
2) Small scale easy to implement terrorist attacks happen in a few American cities. A suicide bomber walks into a crowded mall. A car bomb goes of on a city street. Etc.
3) Republicans blame current president. Say we are fighting over here because we surrendered to them over there.
4) A frightened populace buys into the argument.

How does the new Dem pres play the hand given to him?
