Odds and Economics
There is already a slowing down of the national economy. It may well drift into a recession during late winter or next spring. If it hangs on for very long, whoever is President won't be, after 2004. A joke making the rounds among contrarian investors is, "If Bush wins, he oughta demand a recount."
The Party in power commonly loses strength in Congress during the mid-term elections.
If Bush wins, he may well face a Democratic Party's control of the House and Senate after the 2002 elections. This means he will be faced with anti-gun legislation wrapped in to all manner of "must sign" bills--such as major budget bills or even "Save Social Security".
What this means to us is that we have to get off our dead butts and work even harder at the State level to try to stave off Democratic control of Congress. I guarantee you that the Greenies will join hands with the Dems on all manner of "environmental protection" and anti-gun, anti-hunting issues...
Committee Chairmanships will go to the likes of Bonior, Dellums, Waters of LA, etc. You want Schumer and Feinstein in positions of Committee-power?
You better enjoy Christmas and New Year's, folks, 'cause the work starts soon thereafter.
Or, do little or nothing and remember the "Good Old Days" when all we had to worry about was the Brady Bill.
