Here's my assessment of the "Blame Game" in the next 24 hours [View all]

Some left-wingers are going to blame Tea Partiers because it's Patriots Day.

Some right-wingers are going to blame Obama/gun grabbers because the races was dedicated to the Newtown victims

Some neocons are going to blame Islamic terrorists because...well, just because.

None of this will be based on any actual evidence.
