Punditry as a Possible Career?

How can I get a job as a pundit? They can be adamant about how an election is going to play out, and when they are wrong, nobody ever calls them on it. And their predictions were taped! John McCain is done, they said. The same guys are now calling him the Comeback Geezer. Clinton was inevitable, then she was toast, and now she's something else altogether. Obama was going to ride the Iowa wave all the way to a landslide (mixed metaphors, anyone) in New Hampshire.

Here's my shot at prognosticating. The Democrats will nominate Clinton/Obama. The GOP will nominate Romney/Huckabee. The Democrats will win unless my own candidacy takes off in a big way, in which case America will win.
