Bill Kristol just guaranteed Obama will win a second term

He has a whining, pathetic, cry-baby screed here:

http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/special-editorial-repeal

in which he ends with the phrase:


"Obama’s Waterloo will be November 6, 2012"



Now... we all know Kristol's abysmal history of prognostication. Every prediction he made during the Bush administration, especially those predictions related to the Iraq War, turned out to be wrong.


If Bill Kristol said the sun was going to come up tomorrow, kiss your loved ones goodbye because the world would be ending tonight.

6. Oh thank god!
Based on the headline I thought he'd said Obama would win in 2012 thus ensuring a democratic loss.

Whew! Man... I don't need that kind of scare!

10. Me too, that's how I took the headline...
We would have been sunk for sure if Kristol predicted an Obama victory. Why has no one on the networks confronted this jerk with a comprehensive list of prediction-fails. It would be like shooting a sturgeon in a barrel.

8. Kristol - The Anti-Cassandra
It is a remarkable talent to make predictions that will always be false, but astoundingly stupid-obviously wrong. We need to harness this ability rather than ignore it.

9. NAFTA will create hundreds of thousands of net new American jobs and eliminate illegal immigration.
Paraphrasing from 1993, but that's close enough.
