Newsday, the local fishwrap here on Long Island NY reported yesterday that Representative Michael Forbes, a "Conservative" republican will switch to the Democratic Party.

This guy is definitely anti RKBA, supported the McCarthy bill that was defeated in congress.
My own opinion of him, living in an adjoining district, is that he would sell his mother to make headlines. He was the one who would not vote for gingrich for speaker after the last Congressional elections after Gingrich got him elected in 94. The Democrats deserve him, he will fit right in.
But the Republicans edge is growing thinner in congress. Personally I believe that we will see more defections in the near future in NY. This place is starting to make California look good.
