Remember two weeks ago on DS9.  The super intelligent guys.  The ones who 
predicted that the Federation couldn't win the war against the Dominion.  
Well I speculate that the only way for the Federation to win the war is for 
Spock to succeed in his mission on Romulus.  BTW he's still there.  Once 
Vulcan and Romulus are one the Romulans will be part of the Federation or 
vice versa and along with the Klingons you'll have unstopable force.  But I 
think the Romulans are going to need to make some huge sacrfices to win the 
trust of the klingons.  They are going to need an Enterprise-C incident type 
thing.
