He can, because...Who else are you going to vote for?

Uh, let's see, uh (scratches head, clears throat)...NO ONE!

That's the thing that Bush's "Boy Genius" (one of Bush's pet names for him) Karl Rove, doesn't understand. He thinks that if confronted with a choice of two evils, gun owners will vote for Bush.

What he doesn't realize is that hardcore conservatives in general, and gun owners in particular, are not like a lot of other constituencies in that it's even harder for us to look at ourselves in the mirror after voting for a RINO who stabs us in the back, than it is to look at Hitlary Clinton on TV. So given *that* choice, we'll just stay home on election day and clean our guns.

But the political calculation is - and I for one think that smarter heads than Rove will eventually prevail on this: What is more likely to tip the balance in the Clowngressional elections: the people who will be infuriated over the AW ban getting renewed and who would otherwise have voted for a Republican, staying home on election day and causing Demonrats to get elected, or the people who are infuriated enough over it NOT getting renewed, going to the polls and voting for a Demonrat instead of a Republican?

I don't think it takes a boy genius to figure that one out... but if Rove blows it (and I think he's a closet gun-grabber, myself, so he may be thinking with his "lizard brain" and not his cerebellum on this issue), he may very well end up finding himself *permanently* tagged by Bush with the *other* of Bush's pet names for him: "Turdblossom".
