Cal Thomas and Bob Beckel offer their predictions of what we should expect in 2008 here.

Cal: In the immortal wisdom of baseball great Casey Stengel, “Never make predictions, especially about the future.” Yet what fun is political punditry if you can’t look into the crystal ball every once in a while?

Bob: Besides, if politics isn’t a guessing game, I don’t know what is. I mean, who would have predicted in 2000 that George W. Bush would be a two-term president?

If there is one thing we can be sure about it’s that as soon as you are positive something will happen, the winds change direction.

What an interesting year 2008 is shaping up to be, not only here at home but in events across the globe.
