The Best Halloween Costumes of 2009

With the Halloween season quickly approaching, now is the time to begin thinking about that killer costume that will make you a hit at that holiday party, and the envy of all of your friends. With the past year so full of huge events, great movies and completely outrageous antics in the news, the choices are overwhelming. Do you relive last year and dress up as Obama or Palin?

There are so many choices that could reflect your personality, show your sarcasm, expose your wild side or just make people laugh. We decided to make it a little easier on you by making our “Hottest Costumes Of 2009″ predictions. This list provides our expert predictions on what are going to be the costumes that everyone “has to have” this year.
