The Real Mystery - The Simpson's

Kerry's still blathering, ...did you know he was going to make sure kids are ok after school? I didn't know that was the job for the President. I kinda thought, you know, that it was a parent's job. Uh oh, Vietnam reference number 3. Also, ...he's speaking too fast. He really ran through that speech fast. It's over now. Amazingly underwhelming.

Anyway, one of the Simpson's characters will be outed as gay in the coming season. Who will it be?

People have dismissed the notion that is could be Waylon Smithers because everyone already knows he is gay. However, he has never officially "come out". So, I wouldn't overlook the possibility that it's him.

Other well-noted possibles:
Selma - Real possibility. They've already hinted at her lesbian leanings.
Chief Wiggum - Yeah, he's said some gay stuff, but I can't see it happening.
Skinner - Nah. He's had a long term relationship and was upset when Crabapple broke it off.

My suggestion - Milhouse. We all know he's gay. They've basically said as much. But would they really have a kid come out as gay? I doubt it.

Longshot - Barney Gumble. Never had a girlfriend, you know.

My guesses:
1. Smithers.
2. Selma
3. Milhouse
4. Skinner
