One more year. (??)

A number of political (well, progressive) blogs have noted that one year from today - 20 Jan 2009 - a new President will be sworn in.

Two questions:
1) Can we survive another year with W?
2) Might we be delusional?

I'm not convinced that W will leave peacefully. A previous post - in blatant conspiracy-theory mode - suggests otherwise. The recent neocon saber-rattling against Iran does nothing to reduce my conspiratorial suspicions!
