Ten economic predictions for the second half of 2008
So far 2008 has been a disaster from the banking system, to the housing bust to the economy overall. So, what's in store for the rest of the year. I attempt to answer that question with ten predictions for 2008 on my blog. It's not all doom and gloom but it's not 100% positive either.

I predict things like oil under $100 and a positive Q2 GDP reading. I'd love people to give it a read and post a comment or rebuttal. Subscribe to the blog if you like it. The economics of this election are going to be as important as they've bee in 16 years.

Thanks.

2. I predicted that about a week ago.
No reason of course, just because.

Because we are being Enroned and because the Greedy Oil Pigs are using fuel to rig the election.
