I truly believe because of people like you, the Republicans made sure the ban would occur or they would have lost enough votes to lose the election.

Now, all the gun groups can support the President and the Republican Party. I'm going to call my reps and thank them Monday. I'm also supposed to help my Congressman but I've been ignoring the emails until now.

Let's hope this gives Bush an 80 Million gun owner Bump.

Well, as I said, when push came to shove I would have voted Bush anyway given what is at stake this election, but yes, I think the steady murmur of discontent among gun owners, and the tremendous efforts coordinated through the Internet in making officials aware of the liabilities of this issue, did get some attention of the people looking to get votes this fall. Utlitmately, that's good. Officeholders should be scared of the electorate. If they aren't, we're not doing our jobs.
