Predictions about the future

Nine-term Democratic Rep. William Jefferson likes cold cash, in fact, they found thousands of dollars in his freezer, but a funny thing happened on his way to a tenth term - HE LOST!

It was supposed to be a slam dunk, but for the first time in US history a Vietnamese American was chosen by the people for the post. Few could have predicted this. The unusual often takes us by surprise but we can make better predictions if we realize that the long shot can win.
