At this point, it's far from a sure-thing strategy -- while there is no shortage or Republicans who have expressed problems with how and when James Comey was fired from the FBI's top spot, there has been no rush to embrace Democratic calls for a special counsel.
You can place an order for either right now, though be aware that the NES Classic won't ship until it's back in stock on August 12 and the SNES Classic looks like it'll be back on August 3 — a pretty reasonable wait for a sure thing.
FOUR years ago when Barack Obama's re-election was not a sure thing, a lacklustre Democratic National Convention in Charlotte was transformed by a long but mesmerising speech by Bill Clinton, arguing that Mr Obama had not enjoyed enough credit for saving the American economy from disaster.
And while the Portland Thorns have set the bar for fan support and the expansion Orlando Pride broke the league's single-game record Saturday with an announced 23,403 fans in attendance for their first home game, the N.W.S.L.'s future — its mere existence — isn't a sure thing.
Even if we assume that the Central will take both wild-card spots and send five teams to the postseason—a good bet, but no sure thing—that leaves Winnipeg needing to leapfrog two division rivals, and it's awfully tough to figure out who that would be.
The backstory: The deal was thought to be a sure thing, but the FCC threw a wrench into it after Chairman Ajit Pai, who is favorable to industry consolidation, raised questions about the validity of some of the deal terms provided to the commission by Sinclair.
Paul Krugman Opinion Columnist If there is any lasting benefit from the Trump era — which is by no means a sure thing, since democracy may not survive the experience — it will lie in the Great Unmasking: the revelation of just how much bad faith pervades modern conservatism.
That it is coming from Clinton, who not only represents the dynastic streak within Democratic politics that many within the grassroots reject, but who also lost what everyone assumed to be a sure thing victory over Trump in 2016, makes this all even more powerful for Sanders.
It wasn't a sure thing: Senate Republicans had objected to provisions that would have given a portion of the Zika aid to abortion providers in Puerto Rico, and to the idea that an emergency "continuing resolution" is the right vehicle for this kind of spending push.
At first glance, this weekend's Academy Awards show doesn't promise much in the way of surprises: Many of the nominees long ago earned sure-thing status (our sincere pre-emptive congrats, Mahershala and Viola!), and you just know host Jimmy Kimmel will engage in some Trump-related zing-slinging.
John McCain (R-AZ) cast his now-famous thumbs-down vote on GOP health care efforts in late July, pessimism weighed even more, and in August, it was hard to find anyone in the professional investment community who thought a tax bill was even close to a sure thing.
"One sure thing about influenza is, where and how it will spread or what kind of season we will have, it is unpredictable," said Dr. Daniel B. Jernigan, the director of the influenza division at the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, a division of the CDC.
Elizabeth Warren and Vice President Joe Biden are essentially tied in the RealClearPolitics polling average this week in the field of 22016 Democratic contenders, but Warren is far from a sure thing to win her party's nomination and neither is Biden, despite often being named the Democratic frontrunner.
Early mock drafts have been high on quarterbacks DeShone Kizer (Notre Dame) and Deshaun Watson (Clemson); if the Browns aren't completely sold on them, Texas A&M edge rusher Myles Garrett looks as close to a sure thing as an edge-rusher prospect has been since Von Miller.
John McCain (R-AZ) cast his now-famous thumbs-down vote on GOP healthcare efforts in late July, pessimism weighed even more, and in August, it was hard to find anyone in the professional investment community who thought a tax bill was even close to a sure thing.
And, having interviewed the Homeland showrunner Alex Gansa this week, who let it be known that Dar's presumed sexual abuse of Peter was not at all a sure thing, I feel I can permit myself again to have a little bit of begrudging fondness for the old man.
Assuming those starts go off without a hitch — no sure thing considering the Mets' general bad luck with injuries and the fact both Lugo and Matz are rehabbing elbow injuries — they would be ready to replace Gsellman and current fifth starter Tyler Pill during a road trip that begins June 33.
Her soft leather totes—shaped like a U, in a typeface with strong edges—became a ubiquitous staple for those who could afford it and, eventually, mall brands looking for a sure thing, a rare instance of a trend that deepens rather than dilutes through the democratic embrace of the masses.
And I can tell you that the hedge fund billionaires who are running ads against me right now, and Karl Rove, who started running an ad against me right now, funded by money from the financial services sector, sure thing, I'm the one they don't want to be up against.
Add to this the rise of mobile gaming, which has at least in part captured some of the mainstream audience that Nintendo had courted with the Wii and original DS. In that market, a strange, dedicated gaming console / tablet with detachable controllers like the Switch was far from a sure thing.
So it's now a sure-thing that national Democrats will remain fixated on this issue for the foreseeable future - and while it may succeed in hamstringing Trump, the kind of paranoid ardor underlying the general "Russia narrative" can't lead to fruitful politics and a future that puts them back into power.
But CNBC notes that the success of the STAR Market is far from a sure thing, since China has launched two other equity markets (the ChiNext in 2009 and the New Third Board in 2013) that still receive far less attention than its two primary stock exchanges in Shanghai and Shenzhen.
In the three priority races in CD-2628, CD-28503, and CD-22019 the DCCC backed candidate is favored to win, ranging from Ortiz Jones' standing as a virtual sure thing in CD-23, to Allred's heavy favorite status in CD-32, to Fletcher's slight favorite position in CD-7.
He is banking his candidacy on the idea that, above all, Democrats want to nominate a candidate who will be a sure thing against Trump, and that they will gravitate toward the former vice president as someone who can put an end to the divisive politics ripping the country apart.
Josh Donaldson, a true student of hitting and one of the two or three top hitters in the game when he's healthy (which, granted, is not a sure thing), will lead a crop of Toronto sluggers trying to bring a title back to Canada for the first time since 20083.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt infamously used emergency powers to orchestrate the internment of over 100,000 Japanese-Americans during World War II. Yet as sweeping as they are, the president's emergency powers are no sure thing, and the historical example most comparable to Trump's possible pathway doesn't paint an optimistic outlook.
The first tee is a sure thing, however, and it has grown into a genuine happening since the distant, quieter days of, say, 1977, when it was tucked behind the pro shop at Royal Lytham & St. Annes and the only people gathered around at the start were players, caddies and officials.
The backlash was most pronounced from figures on the Democratic left, both inside the chamber and out, who say the bill, if it gets to President Donald Trump (no sure thing, as House Republicans want more comprehensive rollbacks that could scare off Democrats), will heighten the risk of another crisis.
Daniel LipinskiDaniel William LipinskiYoung Democrats look to replicate Ocasio-Cortez's primary path The Hill's Morning Report - 2020 jitters hit both parties in the Senate Justice Democrats issues 3 new endorsements for progressive candidates MORE (D) On paper, Lipinski looks to be a sure thing for reelection in his Chicago-land district.

This option might be the swiftest, but it would require the agreement of five of the eight justices, and it is hard to imagine any of the four liberal-leaning justices siding with the conservatives to do that (if indeed all four conservatives would be on board, which is no sure thing).

Just as Hillary ClintonHillary Diane Rodham ClintonThe exhaustion of Democrats' anti-Trump delusions Poll: Trump trails three Democrats by 10 points in Colorado Soft levels of support mark this year's Democratic primary MORE was a "sure thing", until the last month the GOP establishment and media punditry were certain of a blue wave.
About McConnell's promise: What McConnell promised Collins isn't a sure thing -- again, House Republicans are deeply opposed to the health care provisions and Democrats, according to several people involved in the year-end spending negotiations, have little appetite to help the Republican leader finalize a deal in the midst of a partisan tax overhaul push.
The No. 1 pick in the NBA draft is insanely valuable and Washington guard Markelle Fultz, the presumed top pick (Joel is already stunting), is generally believed to be a sure thing—a 6'5" ball-handling guard with striking athleticism, a 6'10" wingspan, and a skill set that slides right into the modern game.
Joe Biden was perhaps the closest candidate the party's establishment had to a sure thing in the 2020 election, and he has run on the premise that he alone can defeat Mr. Trump, even though the latest head-to-head matchup shows Mr. Biden performing about the same as Mr. Sanders against Mr. Trump.
There was a time when the category seemed like a close race between her and Portman, but so far, Portman has struggled to gain traction, ceding most of her "critical favorite" territory to Huppert, who won at the Golden Globes (though Huppert wasn't nominated at the SAGs, so she's far from a sure thing).
The company named it as the location of its second headquarters, known as HQ2, a distinction it also bestowed upon Crystal City, Va.

With a cast that includes Olivia Wilde, Ray Romano and Juno Temple, and an aesthetic that mixes fictional characters with actors playing real-life music stars (like David Bowie, Elvis Presley and Lou Reed), the series is ambitious, expensive and — to its creative team — the closest proposition to a sure thing this side of a Led Zeppelin reunion.

All 10 incumbents are running for reelection in the March 85003 Republican and Democratic primaries, and while the most likely scenario is that all 10 will raise a toast to victory the evening of March 1, for three incumbents, victory on March 1 is not a sure thing due to the presence this cycle of viable primary challengers.
The resort had already notified the couple that they could rebook at another Beaches property, and they'd nearly settled on the Bahamas, even planning the time and place of the ceremony and picking the food all over again, when a second hurricane, Maria, picked up strength in the Caribbean, making that resort less of a sure thing, too.
How he fits: The Browns traded into this spot when the Texans selected Deshaun Watson (the Browns also received a 22016 first-round pick), and with Myles Garrett seeming like a sure thing at defensive end, they took a chance on Peppers, giving them two of the most intriguing defensive players in college football last season.
And while not every AI language model using these new techniques is named after a Muppet (OpenAI's well-traveled GPT-2 is one exception, though "Snuffleupagus, or Snuffy for short" was considered as a name before being rejected as too flippant), it's a pretty sure thing that if you see a Muppetware model you know what approaches it's using.
But a victory by the former presidential candidate would be no sure thing in an election with Donald TrumpDonald John TrumpPossible GOP challenger says Trump doesn't doesn't deserve reelection, but would vote for him over Democrat O'Rourke: Trump driving global, U.S. economy into recession Manchin: Trump has 'golden opportunity' on gun reforms MORE as the party's presidential nominee.
The other surprising thing is that you might expect loss-averse voters to be leery of taking a risk on an unpredictable outsider like Trump, since loss aversion often makes people cautious: offered the choice between five hundred dollars and a fifty per cent chance at a thousand dollars or nothing, most people take the sure thing.
After Republicans inside and outside the Trump administration voiced last-minute opposition to the expected decision to Trump himself, Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the Department of Homeland Security announced Tuesday that the administration would "wind down" the program with a March 2000, 24 expiration date — giving Congress time to work on a legislative fix that is no sure thing.
His idea paid big dividends: Pee-wee's Big Adventure (which marked director Tim Burton's feature film debut and was scored by Danny Elfman) was a bona fide box office success, grossing $40 million off its $6 million budget — the 19th-highest-grossing movie of its release year, 1985, ahead of other cult classics like Weird Science, The Black Cauldron, and The Sure Thing.
The crowd cheered Thiel's six-minute speech, in which he declared himself proud to be gay and proud to be a Republican, garnering plenty of applause from Trump's sons Eric and Donald Jr. "He saw an opportunity to help somebody, who was not a sure thing, and get in on the ground floor," said a friend of Thiel's on his decision to speak at the RNC.
But it's no sure thing that a ceremony that ends at 11 pm instead of 11:30 on the East Coast, or a ceremony that features actors who play popular superheroes, or a ceremony that might award a Best Popular Picture trophy to, say, a Mission: Impossible film (or an Avengers film) would attract more viewers, to say nothing of viewers in a younger demographic.
Starbs was a Coney Island basketball prospect who grew up in poverty, so hyped that someone wrote a fucking book about him when he was a high school freshman, played in the NBA for years and years, an All-Star talent whose tendency to shoot, like, entirely too much for his position and personal eccentricity sunk a career that seemed like a sure thing.
It's not that Marvel didn't have faith in the movie, but it was no sure thing: It starred a guy (Chris Pratt) best known at that point for his lovable Parks & Recreation character, was written and directed by a guy (Super and Slither filmmaker, James Gunn) who'd never had a big hit, and featured a comic-book property without the visibility of a Spider-Man or Iron Man.
If the city would go along with the Mets and Isles owners using the land for free—something that's no sure thing, given that parkland ruling and the fact that the city has its own plans for Willets Point proper—and give the teams a break on paying property taxes (more likely, given past city policy toward sports venues)—that would surely help make the idea at least marginally feasible.
Biden is "safe, and they realize the importance of getting Trump out of there, and they want to go for a sure thing, they want to go for something comfortable, something familiar," said Darryl Hayes, 603, who was at Biden's St. Louis rally on Saturday and said he generally likes and agrees with Sanders' policies but thinks Biden is more likely to win both the primary and the general election.

Twenty years later, it often seems like the people who control the money in Hollywood are almost exclusively interested in the "sure thing," the movie with the built-in audience, whether because it's based on a hit comic book property or a popular novel, or because it's the third remake of a film with two massive stars in the lead, or because it's a sequel to a hugely popular film from the past.
Since I didn't immediately get my dream job out of college—like I assumed was a sure thing for a lil' genius like me—I conditioned myself to say "day job" when referring to whatever source of income I had at the moment, a subtle way of indicating that while yes, this particular line of employment is what I'm doing to pay the bills, I have far grander ambitions that I expect to be realized soon.
Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie Riz Ahmed, The Night OfBenedict Cumberbatch, Sherlock: The Lying Detective Robert De Niro, The Wizard of LiesEwan McGregor, FargoGeorffrey Rush, GeniusJohn Turturro, The Night Of Our pick: Robert De Niro A few years ago, McGregor would've been a sure thing for his nuanced portrayal of two very different brothers in FX's crime anthology, but in a post-Tatiana Maslany world, pulling double duty isn't as impressive as it used to be.
Not saying it's a sure thing to repeat, but this trend of positive economic surprises has helped spin the "cyclical reacceleration" story, and as this chart shows, the upside surprises tend not to hold these levels for long, as forecasts catch up and data trends revert to the mean: All this helps explain the stasis in stocks: Indexes working off overbought conditions, data flow moderating, investor sentiment already pretty optimistic, memories of three straight January setbacks intruding on traders' minds.
