More bad news for Carolyn McCarthy means more good news for gunnies. From the Daily News, “New York Democrats anxious as Long Island Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, other pols face barrage“:
“… “It’s not the rookies we’re worried about as much as some of the people who have been around a while,” lamented a senior New York City congressman, who spoke about strategy on the condition of anonymity. “I’m a little worried that people like Carolyn McCarthy are out of practice on how to run a real race, and you never know with Nassau County voters,” the lawmaker warned …”
McCarthy has never had a serious challenger before. The GOP has basically let her slide. Her problems now center around the general anti-Democrat/anti-Obama sentiment along with her funny money scandal.
Even if she loses there will be another anti 2A politician to take her place.
Much more important is to publicize the fact that the right to keep and bear arms is a FUNDAMENTAL individual right contained in the Bill of Rights and affirmed by the U.S Supreme Court.
Rarely if ever do I hear this in the mainstream media and that hurts us.
I’ll be happy with driving home the point that simply being anti-gun does not carry the day for these guys. Although that’s not an end-game, it’s a step in the right direction.
