Opening the McLaughlin Time Capsule, Part 1

Back in March, I took note of a few dubious predictions John McLaughlin had made. One of them (that the Democrats will seize control of the House of Representatives in 2006) is still of an undetermined accuracy. The other, however, was that Tony Blair would fail to win a third term.

Obviously this did not come to pass. McLaughlin even held a lengthy discussion on the election with his panel, and though I skimmed through part of it, he did not appear to make note of his earlier prognostication.

It's times like these that I wonder whether the only difference between faux pundits like myself and "real" pundits like McLaughlin is that I don't have to wear a suit.
