It's starting to look very bad out there. At this rate this country has until about the year 2020, based on the current structure of the Congress, the recent history of Supreme Court rulings, and, of course, the last three years of the Bush Administration. Here's the way I see it playing out:

The Democrat Congress waits out the current administration, accomplishing nothing more than making the GOP leadership run for cover.

Lady Hillary is elected the first of her two terms as President and begins, with her Democrat Congress in full support, her campaign to re-make America, first with a military retreat from the Middle East, followed by Open Borders and Universal Health.

Under the crushing burden of new, higher taxes and far-reaching restrictions, the fuel that runs the economic engine begins to leave the country, slowly at first, then picking up the pace as those who originally chose to remain are expected to make up the difference.

The country begins to implode, making the American Experience a footnote in history.
