Your major predictions for 2013

[Oldiesfreak1854]

I'm not in the business of predictions, but here are mine:

1. The Bush tax cuts will expire and America will enter a double-dip recession
2. Chris Christie will be reelected and Terry McAuliffe will be elected governor of Virginia
3. The 49ers will beat the Falcons in the NFC championship and win the Super Bowl
4. A series of bad CGI-animated films will be released
5. Iran will obtain a nuclear weapon and try to use it on Israel
6. The CDU will win federal elections in Germany
7. The US will suffer a credit downgrade from at least one agency
8. Reince Priebus will be reelected RNC chairman
9. Mitch McConnell will announce his retirement
10. The national debt will reach $20 trillion
11. Unemployment will return to above 8%
12. Lincoln, Hunger Games, Les Miserables, and The Dark Knight Rises will all be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars
13. David Cameron will face a major scandal and/or resign as British PM

I don't want to make any death-related predictions because I don't want to be sad.

A year from now, it'll be interesting to look back on these predictions, see how accurate they were, and laugh at the ones that were wrong.
