Doc Intrepid:
Agreed. Speaking of Brown's win, did gun control ever come up as even a miniscule debating point? I didn't pay too much attention until the news started showing that he was quickly gaining ground and the race was becoming a toss up. I didn't hear anything about Coakley ranting about the need for more gun control. Of course, Massachusetts already has a broad assortment of restrictive gun control laws, including an 'assault weapons' ban.
I don't see gun control as any sort of winning issue for the dems, or "pro-gun-control" RINO's. The fact that gun sales, including sales of 'assault weapons', standard capacity magazines, semi auto handguns, and ammo, have increased dramatically, while violent crime rates have decreased to their lowest level in decades, sort of takes the wind out of the "pro-gun-control" sails. That makes me smile. In retrospect, it makes me laugh.
I wish the gun controllers lots of luck in trying to move their agenda forward. NOT! As Rush Limbaugh said about the President's policies, I hope they fail. I hope they fail big time. I hope they fall flat on their faces, as a matter of fact.
Brown's win in Massachusetts only underscores the difficulties that Democrats will face in mid-term elections later this year.
