This is probably a good time to review the criteria which a prophecy must satisfy to be considered a good prophecy.
1. It must be specific enough that it cannot be misinterpreted as being fulfilled when it was not;
2. It must predate the event (duh);
3. The probability of the prophecy coming true by chance is low enough that its fulfillment is unexpected;
4. It must be the only relevant prophecy that pertains (if dice are predicted both to land heads and tails, neither is a successful prediction);
5. It must not have been fulfilled by conscious intentions to do so which existed at the time of prediction or because of the prediction.
Both Isaiah and Daniel violate multiple criteria and thus neither qualify as good prophecies.
