The Nobel Prize: who's going to win?

wouldn't it be cool if someone who won an ignobel prize also won a nobel prize? thinks about it; "the Nobel Prize in physics goes to John Doe for the grand unification theory. he also studies duck farts." clean sweep!
 
It'd be cooler if he won both awards for the same research. "The Nobel Prize in physics goes to John Doe for the Grand Duck Fart Unification Theory."

yes, that would be cooler!
 
Any votes for Stephen Meyer and his positive proof of Intelligent Design?
 
This is just a guess, but I suspect George W. Bush is going to be out of the running--again--for the Peace prize.
 
I looked around for the peace prize and there are 193 nominees. I think the list is supposed to be secret but there are some leaks.

Here are some odds from readabet.com
IAEA and/or Mohammed El Baradei 1/1
Hans Blix 5/1
Richard Lugar and/or Sam Nunn 5/1 (For antiproliferation work).
Mordechai Vanunu 8/1 (Jailed Israeli leaker of nuclear secrets)
Vaclav Havel 8/1
Pope John Paul II 12/1
Sergei Kovalyev 14/1 (Russian human rights activist)
Treatment Action Campaign 14/1 (South African AIDS group)
Bono 25/1
Community Of Sant'egidio 25/1 (Catholic Peace Group)

I would bet on an obscure group called:
"The Treatment Action Campaign -- a South African ant-Aids lobby group --and its leader, Zackie Achmat, are joint nominees for the 2004 Nobel Peace Prize, to be announced on Friday."

My second bet would be the pope since he is dying.
