Rudy- Anti gun
Romney- Anti gun (mad an a*shole out of him self last week)
McCain- shakey... hard to trust him on any issue
Ron Paul- Pro gun
Tancredo- Pro gun
Hunter- Pro gun
On the Democrat side.. Hillary and Obama- both rabidly anti gun.
If things keep up with the way they are going, the 2008 election is going to be very dark for gun owners. The top candidates for both parties are not too gun friendly.
I don't have much faith in DC.. regardless of who is in power. Basically, the ATF is the biggest problem. The actions of the ATF are going unchecked. The politicians in the congress can be somewhat held accouuntable for what they do (or don't do). The bureaucrats at the ATF are pretty much held accountable by nobody (as we learned a few times back in the 90's). The federal government realizes that they won't be able to shut us down with legislation.. so they are going to use the administrative bureaucratic approach to do it through the ATF. They are shutting down gun shops at a very rapid rate for small BS mistakes on 4473 forms.
If we elect Republicans, things will go to hell in a handbasket at a steadyrate. If we elect Democrats, things will go to handbasket at a very rapid rate. Both groups are pretty much one in the same- they both are driven by money, the thirst for power, and their large egos.
It's time to elect men like Ron Paul. He has my vote.
