I'm betting that the Bush administration rolls over on this one and backs all of the good senator's wishes. Watch as the folks you thought were 2nd Amend. defenders allow the ultra gungrabber to have her way...
I'll take the heat on this, but I'll stand by this statement....

I have had a bad feeling for a while that you are correct on this

Maybe some leverage on the Estrada nomination?

I don't think Dubya is going to forget just how close the last election was, or that gun control cost Algore his home state. I doubt his advisers are going to encourage him to p*ss-off a large part of his base votes.

Cav,

President Bush has learned from history. Gun control is one of the key issues that cost his Dad the election. President Bush also knows that the gun owners really turned out the vote for him in 2000. I don't think that he's going to forget that.

Cav, I'd also suggest looking at the ping I sent you last week about Ashcroft going after Kaliforny using the NICS checks illegally. That shows a direction that this administration is moving in.

Personally I'm going to stick a note in the solicitations I get from the Republican party and let them know my contributions are on hold till I see which way this goes.
