Golden Globe Nominees: Best Actress in a TV Series - Drama

The nominees:
SALLY FIELD, BROTHERS & SISTERS
KYRA SEDGWICK, THE CLOSER
GLENN CLOSE, DAMAGES
PATRICIA ARQUETTE, MEDIUM
MINNIE DRIVER, THE RICHES
HOLLY HUNTER, SAVING GRACE
EDIE FALCO, THE SOPRANOS

My predictions: 5/7, which is technically 100% since they nominated all five of my choices and just tacked on Arquette and Falco.

What you just read is it in a nutshell. For some reason, Edie Falco is the one performer who managed to get enough votes to place from "The Sopranos". I find that quite interesting, but I think it is highly unlikely that she can manage a win without any other support for the show, and especially considering her limited role. Driver and Hunter are the lone representatives of their new shows, and Arquette and Sedgwick are the only nominees from their shows as well. Sally Field has company from supporting co-star Rachel Griffiths, but Glenn Close is a clear favorite as her show received three other nods.

Who will win? I want to say Driver, but I have a terrible feeling this one goes to Close (or Field).
