Should Kerry win tonight, here is what will happen next:
1. bin Laden will be hailed a genius in the Arab world, which, politically speaking, he is.
2. Iran will go nuclear.
3. North Korea will go nuclear, if it has not already. And by "going nuclear", I mean that both Iran and N Korea will have the ability to mass produce A-bombs and thus deter the rest of the world or blackmail it as they see fit.
4. The neocons of the Republican party are toast. These people (mostly Jews) will be kicked to the street.
5. Israel will cease to be America's "special partner" in the mideast, as Americans come to question if it is worth the cost to the United States to support such a special friend.
6. The US Supreme Court will return to Warren Court days of liberal social engineering.
7. We will have more of an energy policy than we used to.
8. Workers rights will improve.
9. The black man will get a fairer shake.
10.We will be humiliated abroad and attacked at home, but we will learn to mind our own business in the world and stay out of other people's troubles.
