Prediction: Hillary will run for Governor of New York in 2010.
...and she would make a great governor IMHO.

Look at all the historic figures that were NY governors.

13. Dems may not keep the majority
They're incredibly unpopular right now and an Obama led ticket will have no coattails. Dems stand a very good chance of losing the majority in Congress. As a body, they've done zero in Congress to win over voters.
